Another compelling (and genuinely useful) #AI workflow for #VFX artists from @mickmumpitz.bsky.social
Kudos to him for his continuing genorosity with his workflows, clear explanations, and clear documentation.

If I was going to create an essentials playlist, I'd start with a picture of the ACTUAL band. Who the heck are these guys?
Wes Anderson built his entire career on this one movie.
The unique set up of this upcoming show from Peacock presented some fun #VFX challenges. Challenges met by the team at Mavericks. Premieres April 9th. www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-ot...
I mean #2 is the best one amiright?
Are you an Ontario-based #Unreal specialist with experience in #VFX? We're currently looking for the right team member. dmfx.bamboohr.com/careers/121

One of the best Kinks covers there is.
As others have mentioned, the animal crulety is a distration from what is otherwise a thoroughly fascinating film.
Saw it during a theatrical run ten year or so back.
Back when they still had the exclamation mark!
Proud to have played a small role in this year's #VisualEffectsSociety #VFX #VESAwards nomination judging with @vesnewyork.bsky.social . Some phenomenal work on display from 2025. Here's to an even stonger 2026 for all of us in the industry!
How 'bout that? Opens and closes with two Mavericks #VFX shots, with plenty more in the sandwich between. Alex Cross Season 2 premieres February 11th on Prime Video.

Very sad to hear. I'm sure I'm not alone in holding back on Wreckreation until they have a chance for some post-launch updates, given the luke warm reviews. Now it seems those might not happen.
Aww. Ours just got into a box of Costco Stroop Waffles, and is currently paying the price.
Proud to share I'll be retuning once more as a #VES judge in early January to help judge and celebrate the best and brightest #VFX of 2025.

Sad news.
Sadly I can confirm this from my experience.
Mesh2Motion is an #openSource #mixamo style animation suite from @scottpetrovic.bsky.social that can be run locally or online. Super interesting. Nice slick interface. Deserves your support. app.mesh2motion.org #VFX #3D
Interesting open-source #VFX methodology from Polyfjord, leveraging a photogrammetry algorithm to batch-process camera tracks.

Looking forward to testing this out.

Got an interesting opportunity coming up. Seeking expressions of interest from Ontario and Quebec-based #blender literate #VFX artists. #geometryNodes experience a plus.
DM me directly for details.

Shout-out to YouTuber Monzon Media. If you're a complete beginner looking to learn #comfyUI , I can't think of a better teacher. Clear, patient, contextual explanations:

A nice video overview from #b3d artist Jacob Zirkle - building on all the great work from Sean Kennedy - getting lens distortion out of #blender with ST maps, freeing compositing from Blender and into your favorite #VFX #compositing pipeline.

The official trailer is here. Proud to have served as #CG Supervisor for the #VFX contributed by Mavericks VFX. Streaming August 1st.

Huge shout out to Githubber Mwni and his contributors who have a free #blender #animation retargeting addon script up for grabs. Successfully tested on my side with great results. Very intuitive.

Oh man - haven't heard of this gem. Just watched the trailer - all the 80s tropes - despite the heads up I'm going to have to watch this one.
I assume those are staggered prices not release dates, given this was before 95. Pretty cheeky.
One of the most compelling, and clearly explained #Nuke #VFX #ML tutorials I've seen in a while.

Seeking expressions of interest from Ontario and Quebec-based #VFX artists as we look forward to new projects on the horizon:
- #Houdini crowd work
- #Animation
- #Blender -based pre-viz
Ping me if you think you'd be a great fit.
