Unity3D is finally going public
www.pcgamesinsider.biz/news/71461/unity-is-finally-going-public/
techcrunch.com/2020/08/24/unitys-ipo-numbers-look-pretty-unreal/
Between calendar 2018 and 2019, Unity’s revenue rose by 42 per cent year-on-year to $541.8m. Meanwhile, the firm’s revenue for the six months ending June 30th, 2020 was $351.3m, an increase of 39 per cent. The company has clocked up net losses of $163.2m for the year ending December 31st 2019 and $54.1m for the six months concluding June 30th, 2020.
Unity reckons the market it addresses around the world is worth around $29bn, across both video games and other creative industries it works in.
Unlike Epic Games, Unity has long worked with the major platforms and gaming companies to get their engine in front of as many developers and gamers as possible. In fact, the company estimates that 53% of the top 1,000 mobile games on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store and over 50% of mobile, personal computer and console games were made with Unity.

Samsung – The Wall MicroLED frame-less TV
The Wall TV can be configured to sizes ranging from 146 inches to 292 inches diagonally and uses MicroLED technology instead of OLED or traditional LED.
MicroLED delivers many of the benefits you’ll find in OLED, including perfect blacks and eye-popping colors, but the set also boasts 1,600 nits of brightness. That’s brighter than today’s OLED sets.
Currently, Samsung is offering two models of The Wall, or rather the individual panels that make up The Wall, the IW008J and the IW008R. While Samsung doesn’t list prices for these panels online, other resellers are listing the modules for $16 to $23 thousand dollars each.
These individual modules measure 31.75 x 17.86 inches, but have an individual resolution of 960 x 540 pixels. In order to enjoy the same 3840 x 2160 resolution you’ll get on a standard 4K TV, you’ll need to buy 16 of these panels, to set up in a 4 x 4 configuration that measures 146 inches diagonally.
If you’re in the market for a microLED TV, and are comfortable spending upwards of $300,000 to get the same 4K resolution that the best cheap 4K TVs provide, you’ll need to contact Samsung directly to order products and arrange custom installation.
Because The Wall is made up of borderless tiles, the modular design allows additional tiles to be added, making this even-bigger version of The Wall possible.

Pixomondo CEO Jonny Slow fires a stark warning to the VFX business
deadline.com/2020/07/post-production-covid-catastrophe-game-of-thrones-vfx-outfit-1202976057/
“Productions shutdown is now catching up and a lack of new business is leaving companies at serious risk.
“France-based VFX giant Technicolor SA filed for Chapter 15 in U.S. bankruptcy court as the company attempted to steady the ship and restructure some of its $1.58BN debt… The Pixomondo boss thinks that the Technicolor situation is just the tip of the iceberg.
“Post-production is a bit like an airline, if you haven’t got any passengers, you burn through your cash very quickly – most companies will struggle to stay solvent for more than a couple of months.”
“He notes the scale of a company such as five-time Oscar-winning studio DNEG. “They have 6,000 employees and $300M debt. When revenues stops – and it must because nothing is being shot – they have to find quite a lot of money to keep the lights on.”
“There’s a stalemate and that’s making the potential second lockdown news so depressing. It’s fuelling cautiousness…”
“There’s a real need for cash in this part of the sector and the payment terms need to be amended accordingly.”
“Long term I am pretty positive on the outlook for VFX. If travelling is harder, and if it’s harder to do crowd scenes, and if producers can only get insurance for working inside studios, there are opportunities for VFX companies,”
