🧵 breakdown thread of the Halo energy shield vfx! (there's a couple approaches you could take for this, and a lot of optimisations possible for each part, so take this more as a general 'approach' than a specific step-by-step!) 1/5

Years ago we pitched a "toxic-yuri ace-attorney-like about a psychopathic gambling lawyer" and a bunch of guys in top hats laughed us out of their building😢😢😢 Today, of the Devil is rated Overwhelmingly Positive with over 750 user reviews on Steam😏 Have we proved them wrong?🤔

I made a video essay! It's a love letter to 3d software crammed in between several hate notes about 3d software companies. Maybe it can be something you put on in the background while you do art. :)

I know I don't have much reach here, but I need to try. I'm urgently looking for a job as an Environment Artist, Prop Artist, or 3D Generalist. I'm open to roles in the UK or the Netherlands. My visa in the UK is about to expire, so I may need to move back to the Netherlands soon.

What we found was one of the very worst examples of workplace abuse in the history of this industry. That may sound hyperbolic. I really don't think it is. Here's our investigation:
