An interview with Scott de Mercado and Goncalo De Carvalho, lead developer of the Jahshaka Project. Jahsaka is the worlds first OpenSource Realtime Editing and Effects System. Jahshaka takes advantage of the power of OpenGL and OpenML to give its users exceptional levels of performance It’s free to download, try, and work with. From the small one-person studio to the larger organization looking for an extremely customizable workflow, Jahshaka might be the answer. If you are interested in the path not taken by the rest of the privately owned software industry, then maybe Jahshaka is for you! Is the new Hollywood an Open Source solution?
