History

Photoworks formed out of the Cross Channel Photographic Mission (CCPM) arts project in St Leonards-on-Sea in 1995. It initially consisted of founding director and curator Ann McNeill and projects manager Liz Kent. In 1997 the organisation moved to Maidstone and then in 2003 to Brighton.

The magazine was established in 2003 as Photoworks and was published biannually until 2013 when it became an annual publication and obtained its current name. The magazine is published by Photoworks, a Brighton based organization for contemporary photography. The magazine was edited by Gordon MacDonald until he stood down in 2011.

PhotoWorks (ray tracing software)

PhotoWorks is a raytrace rendering program created by Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corporation, formerly supplied as a photorealistic rendering add-in for SolidWorks. The program is based on the Mental Ray rendering engine. It has a library of scenes and materials that can be used with user-created SolidWorks files to create still frame images within the SolidWorks GUI.

Since the 2011 release of SolidWorks, PhotoWorks has been replaced by the PhotoView 360 rendering utility. A 2010 review comparing PhotoWorks with three other rendering programs for SolidWorks (including PhotoView 360) gave the program high marks for render speed and built-in materials, but low marks for realism and user interface.
