The modern Magnificent Seven movie starring Denzel Washington and Chris Pratt is still on Amazon Prime for a few days -- at least here in Germany.
We did some VFX for it. Back in the day I was still doing comp and comp supervision. My shot that I'm most proud of is the knife action on the straw dummy. Our company's showreel of that movie starts with a breakdown of it:
Chuffed! 😃

My favorite quote of the day from IRL:
"I had to give up. I couldn't stay in stop-motion any longer, just to make movies using so much computer technology that they end up looking like CGI anyway. So I'm going back to school to get certified as a nurse practitioner."

A new short film is here.... Even I can't keep up with which one is my newest short film. I rushed to finish this so asto fully focus on The Night Dancer, then forgot to post about it as I was shooting. So here it is, #FearTheFlower the story of a cheating husband who turns into a monster.

On Halloween, I released a new short film, Lajok The Night Dancer. ICYMI, here it is again, a revenge fantasy where dance, instead of guns or karate, enables the main character to get justice. It's based on the most popular character in Ugandan mythology. This is a small thread about the making of this film and you can enjoy it free on my #PeerTube channel @dilmandila

I'd like to mark that, after about 10 years of work, today is the last day of my #VFX career and tomorrow is the first day of my new one.

Kimuli translates to flower, a thing that is supposed to be beautiful. A symbol of love and cuteness. But since I have an evil mind, I thought of a man turning into a flower monster, and haunting his wife. At least I stayed away from gore, so perhaps there's still some cuteness.
Give it a watch, and a boost if you enjoy it!

A show we've recently worked on has won the German film awards for best VFX! We can't show our best work yet (a bunch of our shots will only be in an accompanying series) and we're not the only post house that worked on it. But here's our reel for "Hagen".
The show is a version of a Nordic/Germanic myth. But this time it's not about the dragon-slaying hero but about the "adult in the room" who tries to keep the kingdom safe and sane.
So #vfx people, is anyone here familiar with FreeMoCap? I'm considering it as the Rokoko suit I have is a total disappointment. But been installing freemocap and its stuck on downloading for about 30 minutes now and no sign of when it will be done. There is no documentation on how big this thing is. (Or maybe I'm too naive to know?)

My erosion filter is out! Video, blog post, and shader source.
It emulates erosion without simulation, so it's fast, GPU friendly, and trivial to generate in chunks.
