Ballistic Media publishes books for, and by, the Digital Arts Industry. We are an artist-focused company linking artists to other artists, instructors, mentors and employers. We have successfully blended a conventional publishing business with an Internet community to leverage content acquisition and sales.

The CG (Computer Generated) Art Industry is made up of artists who produce art with a computer as 2D, 3D, still or moving images. The sector continues to grow as a new generation of technically literate artists emerge. The sector has strong links to the film and games industries.

The Computer Graphics Society grew from an on-line forum established in 2001 to meet the needs of this new breed of artists who wanted to share ideas and intelligence in an industry that was evolving faster than instruction manuals could be drafted or printed. The forum soon became a place for artists to post their work, share praise and offer advice. Today it includes over 120,000 registered members and is recognised as "the largest forum for professional digital artists in the world".

Ballistic continues to work with artists worldwide, building the Digital Art Community through the management of The CGSociety. The CGSociety offers a wide range of benefits to artists through forums, portfolios, training, jobs and event services.

Ballistic draws income from a range of activities including:

The production, sale and licensing of high quality publications, DVD's and associated hard and soft products.The sale of advertising space on www.cgsociety.org and www.game-artist.net, paid memberships, third party hard and soft products, advertising on CGJobs. The management of sponsored competitions and private online training.
