Who's Using Modo
Discover why leading artists choose Modo for creating real-time content in games and VR, iterating on product design concepts, and bringing bold ideas to life.
Dan Webb, Sr. Designer, New Balance
The pace of design really increases using Modo. Something you normally wouldn't see until first proto, you can conceptualize in a sketch much earlier in the design process.
Modo is for
FILM.
Jason Gagnon — Lookdev Supervisor, MPC
We have a good relationship with Foundry; they're keen to push the software further and make things simpler for the artists while keeping up with industry standards.
GAMES.
Frederic Hein — 3D Artist, Blindflug Studios
With speed and versatility as an indie’s most important demands, Modo's ability to let you focus on creation and to tailor the tools to your needs makes it the go-to software for taking 3D models from concept to the game engine.
VFX.
Solene Chan-Lam — Lead Texture Artist, MPC
Foundry cover all aspects of production with a user friendly approach that allows the artist to focus on the creativity and ease any technical issues encountered. I've never worked with a software company as available for customer feedback and support. I cannot imagine working without my Foundry software.
