Houdini FX-Particle Animation-Simulations-Pipeline-Renderfarm

I was a Junior Artist, Production Assistant, and Runner at the studio. I was able to be on set and contribute final visual elements on a commercial campign for Les Schwab.

I worked in both the engineering and 3D departments. Depending on studio needs I was assisting in maintaining critical systems such as the renderfarm, setting up workstations for artists, and installing new network lines in the building. In the 3D department I worked with artists to set up 3D scenes and get them rendering. I also had experience rendering very high res images for print ads.
