A group of amazing guys organized a V-Ray workshop on a wonderful mediterranean cruise!
Yes, I admit that the first time I heared about I tought it was a joke, but it wasn’t. Ciro Sannino – I must say – for the first time in the (recent) V-Ray workshop “history” had the idea to move his V-Ray Training Center on an MSC luxury boat!
The course was a certified Chaos Group and looking at the pics I think they spent amazing days togheter, studing, exploring, shooting and relaxing. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G :-O
