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
New illo for the NYTimes Sunday Business last weekend.
Also my first project completed fully in Karma with some help from @motionoperators

“Finance Bro” - finally getting back to this series:) #houdini #redshift #nyc #newyorker #characterdesign #motiondesign #financebros #c4d #zbrush #portrait
Seriously how did this get approved? I'm so flabbergasted. @MaxonVFX
And now I have class in 10 minutes and no license to teach. But no worries their support team will get back to me in 1-2 business days /s @MaxonVFX
I love teaching Cinema 4d to my students but after this semester I am doneszo - Blender & Houdini it is..
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?

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.
FYI for anyone using @dropbox - TIL you are automatically enrolled in there "Third Party AI" system which shares info with 3rd party companies
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..."
You heard that right... Text to Vector Graphic is here in Adobe Illustrator. #AdobeMAX is bringing you all the latest releases! Learn more: adobe.ly/3tmDc4N
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,...
