Here’s a new animation I worked on for 350org for the climate summit focused on ending our reliance on fossil fuels. On a super nerdy level it was really fun using Houdini’s new Kinefx. Being able to go from Points to Joints to Pops and back again made this a breeze. #houdini

What is happening with @MaxonVFX student licensing? Their new student licensing system requires you to now submit 1. Your Date of Birth 2. Your driver's license & or passport 3. Upload a video recording of yourself How was this not flagged as an insane ask?

does anyone know why @vimeo is forcing an upgrade when just trying to "share" a video. I already have a paid account. Why does the share link ask me to upgrade?

Alternatively does anyone have a good recommendation for another company to use for sharing videos? Vimeo is getting annoying

This is obviously very self serving, but it would be cool if the contributor credits for art/media linked out to a profile page the way that writers credits do on the NYT site. I would love to one click to see all the video this guy has shot for them in one place.

Disappointed to see @MaxonVFX double the price of student licenses ($10 to $20). Why can't Maxon get on board like other CG apps & offer students free edu licenses? @AdskMaya =free, @thefoundry = free, @sidefx = free , @Blender = free edu, @Substance3D = free. All free for edu

These aren't tools for creatives. These are tools to BYPASS hiring creatives. Saying these tools help us is like a supermarket cashier walking into work only to find a bunch of 'Self Checkout' machines installed and thinking "ooh this is gonna make my job easier..."

The only problem this actually solves is their subscriber growth problem. What's the problem? Only creatives purchase their products which limits growth. Solution? Eliminate the need to be creative

this is interesting. so Adobe is including new AI tools, totally acknowledging that legally they can't be used for commercial work due to copyright issues, but then burying this info in a consent form that we all know no one except nerds (people like me) are gonna read.

And this is thumbnail is so disingenuous. No one is going to upload a picture of a fucking metal ball. They're going to upload James Jean's work, Tomer Hanuka's work, Victo Ngai's work,...

And more importantly they're going to steal the work of people who are NOT famous yet....those who are not successful yet....and this will rob THOSE people of the opportunity to climb out of THEIR circumstances and achieve a better life for themselves and their families
