While Affect3D typically avoids commenting on current events, the present situation in Ukraine is unique and warrants a statement from our staff. Since our founding we have operated as a remote company, and in doing so we have had the honor of working with many talented individuals from all over the world. As chance would have it, our current team contains both staff and contractors who live in Ukraine. Some of these staff have been with us for years, we know them as friends, and they have been vital in the creation of our many sites and products. Since the invasion began, our colleagues have had their lives endangered and disrupted with increasing severity as the conflict enters their cities and neighborhoods. Millions of Ukrainian citizens have already fled because of these attacks, but far more people remain, and there are no guarantees that they or our friends will make it out of this safely. For this reason, among many others, we want to state openly that we #StandWithUkraine. We would also like to ask the 3DX community to consider supporting Ukraine if you have the means to do so. We want fans of 3DX to know and understand that this needless war impacts the art we create for the worse, and any aid you can give, solidarity you can show, or support you can rally to the people of Ukraine will both directly and indirectly help the 3DX community. The Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has offered the support pages we’ve linked above to anyone looking to help. The Ministry suggests donating to Ukraine’s Defense. Multiple humanitarian donation options (UNICEF, Red Cross) and non-monetary support options are also detailed on the support page for those interested in alternative options. Alternatively, you can also support Ukrainian businesses here.
