Legend3D's Director of I.T. Anthony Lopez, says We looked at Mistika a while ago and were immediately impressed, and after researching all competitive products, we came to the conclusion that SGO is refreshingly different and a company we can work with, not only because of their passionate commitment to the S3D industry, but also for our mutually beneficial development opportunities. He expands, As we continue to grow, so do our systems and technology. Mistika is a trustworthy system with dependable 4K S3D real-time playback and visual effects capabilities that can handle everything from editorial, depth grading, and they are open and accessible to partner on development projects.

We foresee Mistika playing a huge role here and its time-saving strengths make it a wise investment. explains Jared Sandrew, Legend3D's Creative Director.
