Technical students are deeply interested in understanding and coding the guts of path tracing after seeing the beautiful results produced by Arnold.”

Short film projects now focus on lighting as creative design, rather than a rendering burden. “Arnold has boosted the creative and technical curiosity of my students. Student users of any of our other supported 3D DCC tools (Cinema4D, Houdini and Katana) should request additional Arnold educational licenses through their academic institution. Individual student users of Autodesk Maya and 3ds Max can download the latest versions that come bundled with Arnold for interactive rendering. Faculty, instructors and Program Directors interested in running Arnold at their school can visit the Autodesk Education Portal to request Arnold Educational Licenses. Arnold has a long history in rendering research and academia, and we are happy to be able to support and encourage computer graphics education around the world. We are also pleased to announce that Arnold is now free for educational institutions. Arnold now FREE for Educational Institutions There are no limits to the number of Arnold 5-Packs that can be purchased. To take advantage of the Arnold 5-Pack promo please contact your local Autodesk Reseller. We hope that Arnold Packs will both bring Arnold to more users, and let existing users scale up their rendering capacity more easily. By comparison, the price of 5 individual Arnold subscription licenses is currently USD $3000/year, so purchasing Arnold Packs means substantial savings. We are currently offering the Arnold 5-Pack promo: 5 Arnold licenses for USD $1500/year*.

These are bundles of Arnold (annual) subscription licenses, which customers can use locally or on the cloud. We are very excited to announce a new offering - Arnold Packs.

At SIGGRAPH2017 we announced two new initiatives, opening up Arnold to more users and adding tremendous value to those who use Arnold in production every day: Arnold Packs With the recent addition of the Autodesk Licensing Framework, we are able to offer some excellent new ways to use Arnold.
