Mark Manca joined the RenderMan group nearly 10 years ago, and his current role is to help artists tell their stories by strategizing with and motivating diverse teams to evolve technology to create better (and more efficient) storytelling opportunities for artists.
During his career at Pixar, he has helped evolve RenderMan from a batch renderer to a renderer fully focused on the artist experience; part of which is helping to bring XPU into being.
As technology continues its rapid evolution forward, he can't wait to help RenderMan continue to leap forward in service of artists and storytelling.
