Re: Where there are more opportunities - 3d characters vs 3d hard surface ?
@neilberard In Vancouver, hiring has actually scaled up. My studio is planning on doubling in size by next year, and I've had a few other studios approach me. Live action VFX has definitely taken a hit, due to no filming, but animation seems to be doing pretty good. -
Re: Question regarding UDIM's
I see, it's only useful as a time saver, not a resources saver, you end up with a whole ton of textures as well but it's faster to apply to models... Very useful for film and vfx but no so much for environments in videogames (i think trim sheets and tileable textures are the real heroes there) Thanks! -

Re: first time retopologizing
Hello, Neox, thank you for taking the time to answer. So in most instances, would you keep the eyeballs and figure on different layers/sub-tools and deliver it this way to the VFX team? Also, would you recommend making the tear duct into a third sub-tool? Thanks again! -
Re: Purpose of Multi Uv Sets or udims
I believe Udims (and Mari itself) were developed at Weta digital as a means of authoring massive texture resolution on vfx assets in a very simple and artist-friendly way. So, for imstance, a hero close-up shot might have 100+ x 8K maps per channel. -
Re: Kotaku: "Five Things I Didnt Get About Making Video Games (Until I Did It)"
I dont think that would alleviate the problem Blond. The general public would still be super ignorant about the process and language of development. Its the same problem the VFX industry has, everyone thinks its all one button pushed and its done, so the work is undervalued -
Re: STREET FIGHTER THE FILM
Looks alright aside from the pretty cheesy VFX, which just yells out 'low-budget'. Casting and fighting look good though. Also it's a bit cheeky that they're in their signature red and white gis in every shot, you'd think they'd have some regular clothes. -
Re: Animation/Rigging for games - Just how much more used is Maya then Max?
Ah, I editted my post. I think eric is right on that one. I have seen a bunch of studios switching over, which i think is why i thought the rumours were official. that's my bad. https://www.reddit.com/r/vfx/comments/z8o09/autodesk_is_no_longer_going_to_develop_3dsmax_and/ -
Re: Vancouver Film School
I'm studying there right now. Was lucky enough to get in on the old fee. I don't think I wouldn have even thought about going with the current costs for the 3d animation / vfx program. If you have any questions still though, feel free to contact me. -
Re: PORTFOLIO Remco van den Berg
I'm not having any trouble loading up stuff on the page. Nice clean layout and easy to navigate, but I don't know much about VFX so I can't give much feedback regarding your work.
