Lowpoly Kitbashing
Every kitbash pack I've ever found has always been 100% highpoly, and I'm curious why that would be.I mean if it was meant for VFX, that's one thing. But are none of these aimed at game artists, or am I missing something?Adding on some bevels/chamfers and subdividing is a hell of a lot easier than retopologizing and UV… -
Re: Driving to a studio to apply in person - Good idea, bad idea?
I think it depends on the studio. If it's not a really popular one then I think it's ok to do it. I've done it myself and the people I met were friendly and happy to see me. Some even took the time to watch my demoreel while I was there. This was at a pretty big VFX studio in London BUT I think it might be a different deal… -
Re: Skyline
Absolute and utter garbage. One of the worst films I've ever seen. The VFX work doesn't even come close to being good enough to redeem how completely awful every other aspect of the movie is.

Re: Renderman Free Non Commercial

Re: Maya - Render Shadows without Groundplane

Re: Ideas for research module?
realtime hair, cloth and fluid dynamics for proper vfx (explosions, smoke etc) would be interesting stuff. we see a lot of tech demos etc, but to actually implement a lot of that in a useful way in a real project with tons of characters on screen is usually a no no on current gen consoles. but again, to do this stuff you… -

Re: Technical Officer – Animation, University of Hertfordshire
The application period has been extended to the 26th of June. It would be worth asking if you could possibly study an MA for free in the interview, if that's a sweetener? Got a great gym, climbing wall, huge swimming pool and lots more :) http://www.herts.ac.uk/contact-us/jobs-and-vacancies/professional-vacancies Also you…
