I am a 3D VFX artist and I specialise in Houdini, mainly around Pyro Simulations and Rigid Body Simulations, although I have explored soft body and Vellum inside Houdini, I am highly inspired by the whole of the Transformers franchise as it shows tons of explosions (even though a lot of the effects were real), and other scenes which are filled with simulations. For my project I focused on the Rigid Body side of things as I had explored Pyro in the past modules, but at the end I still did some, This was done by compiling references from the real world and trying my best to recreate and fit them to our not so ordinary effects. I'm very excited to start my career as a Houdini FX artist, and join a whole team of people that are chasing the same passion as me, where I can at the same time improve my skills and expand my network.
