Wacom shows the Cintiq 12WX at Siggraph 08

There’s a great line in the movie “Wuthering Heights” where Lawrence Olivier says to his dying love “I can not live without my love, I can not die without my soul.” As my 10 month old son decided to destroy my Wacom grip pen, these words came to mind. Since getting the Intuos 3 tablet I have used nothing else in my work. Sadly I found myself a bit stymied trying to use the mouse once again.

I needed cheering up and decided to visit my friend Doug Little from Wacom. Doug showed me the new Cintiq 12WX, a perfect tool for storyboarding among other things. The ability to draw right on the tablet was tremendous. At under $1,000 it’s a great entry point to the next gen Wacom tablets.

Thanks to Doug for taking a few moments to be interviewed. For more info visit www.wacom.com

The Cintiq 12WX is available at for $999 from Creation Engine.
