This shot is still one of my favorite FX I worked on. I really love the smooth motion of the smoke in the night sequence.

All the FX were created in Houdini and rendered in Solaris with Arnold.

A few months back, when I was working on my graduation film, I tackled this shot — one of the most challenging of the whole project.
We decided to use USD, and with such a heavy RBD setup, it definitely pushed our pipeline to the limit.

All the FX were done in @sidefxhoudini and rendered in Solaris with Arnold.

Hello folks, it’s been a while since the last post ❤️ thank you for the almost 10k

It was so nice to create something magic like that 🔥

My friend @thmtsei created the vortex with the lighting in the sky ⚡️

The original render is in 2:35 but since Instagram is doing soooo good updates, we can’t share this god ratio anymore 🫠

Everything was made on Houdini and compositing on Nuke

Alien chara concept

I challenged myself on Zbrush this time, missing eyes but still.
I should work on this project again, I’m sure there is amazing things to do.

Alien: Zbrush
Texturing: Substance Painter

Explosion in the mountains

🔈Christian Zerilli

I experienced pyro on Houdini and it was a really good time!

The original render is in 2:35 and we feel way better the explosion and the size.
I admit the square ratio isn't the best one but at least you can see better.

Explosion: Houdini + Mantra
Environment: Bridge + WorldCreator
