Keep in touch and help us to improve things further

Our work process is based on sorcery and magic. We would like to, but … We have to admit that we are definitely not magicians. We just know the software we are using because we have been using it everyday since 1998. Yes, we designed spaceships and dinosaurs with Max R2 and Bryce then we grew up [And continue doing spaceships dinosaurs, guns, and cars :-)] but we also learned from other talented persons.

1. DISCUSS

Through talks, chat and meetings we have learned that artists do not just need some new “super uber mega top new feature or software”. No, what they really want and need is “time”. .

2. ANALYSE

So we will try to help your everyday workflow to be lighter and easier. We will analyze and track down what is painful and time-consuming.

3. DELIVER

Then, we would like to offer you some more time to focus on what is really important to you [that can be the art you are working on, or your family, or maybe yourself]. We want to offer you more time to focus on what is really important to you instead of doing repetitive tasks and kilometers of computer mouse per day.

What do we have ? / What do we love ?

Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way.
Edward de Bono

For us creativity is the key. We use creativity for creative people like you. We respect established patterns but we also know that those set patterns need to evolve and that is the reason why we try to improve them.

We would like to break down the barrier between creative people and software. Simplifying user experience can improve tremendously the way people interact with software and this is what we really want to do for you.

Man is still the most extraordinary computer of all.
John F. Kennedy

In the last decade, significant progress has been made on the technology/technical front. Tons of new tools were created. Here, at Onikanabo, we think that you are still your best tool. Indeed, a computer alone is nothing. And it goes the same way for OS and software.

We want to empower you and increase your capacities tenfold.

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.
Scott Adams

Prototyping and agility are the keys for any company. Our tool will help you to be better in those areas.

You learn from your mistakes. So we will help you to learn faster.

All that is valuable in human society depends upon the opportunity for development accorded the individual.
Albert Einstein

We think that if an artist in your team saves up 5 to 10 seconds per use tools, multiplied by the amount of tools used every day, it will increase his comfort and the earnings of the company at the same time. And artist can accomplish from 2500 to 4000 tasks per day inside 3D Studio Max.

With our tools you will save money and increase the comfort of your artists. [or yourself]

When you’re surrounded by people who share a passionate commitment around a common purpose, anything is possible.
Howard Schultz

We are passionate about what we do everyday. We think that we have created something new and special. We are sure that you will like it.

And maybe in the future something will change in our industry.

Enlightened leadership is spiritual if we understand spirituality not as some kind of religious dogma or ideology but as the domain of awareness where we experience values like truth, goodness, beauty, love and compassion, and also intuition, creativity, insight and focused attention.
Deepak Chopra

A lot of artists feel stuck with their software, they face obstacles everyday that is why we talked to them and we will also listen to their feedback.

Improvements will come from all, so feedback is welcome.
