Paul and Mai will be talking about several enhancements that have been made with a focus on improved UX and functionality, as well as some new additions to the toolset.

Paul Ambrosiussen is currently a Technical Artist and Game Tools Developer at SideFX Software. He finished his BASc in International Game Architecture and Design at NHTV University of Applied Sciences in Breda. Paul enjoys writing tools to support effective art-pipelines, and maintaining tool / workflow quality for the artists he is assisting. His goal is to help others create amazing things in a better, faster and more flexible way. He creates tutorials, gives live lectures, attends events, and presents custom workshops to customers.

Mai Ao is a new member of SideFX Labs team and a technical artist who previously worked in game productions creating procedural pipelines, FX simulations, and shaders. He's here to drink coffee and develop tools, and he's all out of coffee at the moment.

This presentation covers the "Blood Drum" effect from the Diablo IV cinematic "By Three They Come". We'll dig into how we took advantage of Houdini's flexible simulation tools, and VDB surfaces to efficiently create a complex formation effect. Then onto how Vellum enabled us to create dynamic stretching and tearing effects.

Nema Safvati is a Senior FX artist at Blizzard Entertainment within the Story and Franchise Development Division. He started out in advertising at studios such as The Mill and Moving Pictures Company. Before working at Blizzard Nema worked on feature films at Digital Domain in Los Angeles. Such as Spider-man: Homecoming, Thor Ragnarok and Avengers: Infinity War.

The talk describes the journey of developing a CFX pipeline from scratch - leveraging Vellum, PDG and USD inside of Houdini.  The focus will lie on some of the core concepts, their implementation and how to satisfy experienced users and newcomers alike.

Philipp Buschauer brings a versatile arsenal of skills to his role as Houdini generalist & TD at Axis Studios.  Originally joining the studio as an FX artist Philipp’s role quickly developed due to his creative approach to solving problems.  Now working across the  FX, CFX and Lighting teams, helping artists coming from other dcc packages to get started using the dynamics tools in Houdini as well as designing and implementing new pipeline approaches.

Some of Philipp’s projects include leading AAA game trailers for Gears 5, Outriders and Deathloop and most recently the hugely successful music video for Riot’s virtual girl group sensation, K/DA.
