HI there!

A friend of mine needed to render rib/ifd secuences outside houdini, I saw on linux we can use a simple loop, so that was I made, simple loop but on windows batch cmd.exe (pretty crap by the way)

Definitely with python you can expand it a lot, next time ;)

Hi everyone, finally after long time, I am part of the team at Framestore in London. Thanks so much to the people who made this possible, and of course, thanks to my family and all so great colleagues and friends for the unlimited support.

By the way, wonderful city, I can't stop walking around!

I expect to get used to the city and language, and be at the level of this amazing team work here.

Salute!

This is a Project done with my 2 friends Ramiro "Macrowaves" Fernandez and Fidel Ochoa, it was done for Gizmo, and they are four spots for a TV news.
I made a few systems to animate the "bat effect" and pick the blocks up, the base is a procedural segmented plane and all the stuff are particles.
Blocks system is quite used for all de instances in the shots.
Done in 3dsMax, TP, Vray and AFter Effects.
