VFX Industry Thought Leader | Studio Head | Consultant | MBA Helping Studios, Investors & Talent Navigate the Global VFX Industry
By popular request, here are the countries with the highest headcount in VFX for Creature Technical Director / CFX roles, plus Rigging- and Grooming-focused roles. There’s overlap between these roles, and dividing them up based on job titles is a little artificial. That said, Canada has the highest number of Creature TD / CFX roles in VFX, and the highest total number of artists across these three job titles, by a considerable margin. India has a higher number of roles specifically called out as Rigging or Grooming. Similar charts for other VFX roles can be found here, for comparison: 3D and Environment/DMP: https://lnkd.in/gEVybHrY. VFX Supervisors at VFX studios, Previz/Postviz: https://lnkd.in/gCTWruEd. Compositing, Roto/Paint and MM/Tracking: https://lnkd.in/gUPEVcfP The data comes from a core group of 175 internationally recognized studios that provide visual effects for Hollywood movies, with over 42,000 VFX professionals across all disciplines. #vfx #vfxjobs #globalproduction #filmmaking

UG Programme Leader for VFX / VFX Compositing Lecturer at Escape Studios - VES London Board Manager - BAFTA member - Fellow HEA - Artist (RA Summer Exhibition 2024) - Writer
Amazing interview with VFX supervisor Andrew Jackson, and DNEG VFX supervisor Giacomo Mineo who talk about the creation of VFX in 'Oppenheimer' and yes there were no 3D VFX (CG) but it was all done using filmed elements which were combined using 2D VFX (Compositing). It is actually refreshing seeing how VFX shots were created combining on set SFX techniques, involving "miniatures, minute explosions, thermite fire, spinning beads and much more", with VFX Compositing techniques. 😍 "We wanted all of the images on the screen to be generated from real photography, shot on film and preferably in IMAX. The process involved shooting an extensive library of elements. The final shots ranged from using the raw elements as shot, through to complex composites of multiple filmed elements." ❤️ VFX is not just CG, VFX is Compositing too. 😊 #oppenheimer #vfx #cg #compositing #sfx #miniatures Escape Studios

The last post got me thinking - all supervisors and producers in VFX come from various backgrounds. I myself started as a compositor and (between us) am terrible at animation. It doesn't necessarily mean that I need to rush to buy a new course (God knows I have too many unfinished ones), but if I were to work on a heavy animation project, it would be a great idea to have a strong Animation Supervisor to rely on. But there are (in theory) should be areas that VFX Supervisor must know well. Like... probably for all your projects you going to need compositing. And planning. With some budgeting. You also need to ingest material in the right color space and format (yes, that annoying ACES thing). And while in big companies there are dedicated people who cover all that, I believe a VFX Supervisor must, if not be able to do it themselves, at least understand what they are talking about, why they are making decisions towards one solution or another, and so on. Not every company will ask you to bid on projects, but it is a great skill to have. Some of us (me included) are lucky to have amazing producers on our side and can distance ourselves from the boring reality of numbers. But what if your producer is sick or leaves you for someone who can understand resources and planning? We kind of learn all this while navigating our careers, and I bet we have different techniques, strengths, and weak areas. Being a Sup is quite a big responsibility - people come to you with questions all day long, and you need to know the answers or at least pretend that you do and trust your gut (with creative stuff, not ACES, please!). Wouldn't it be great to have a resource, page, masterclass (don't say course) or "bible" with all the base-level information that can help cover areas like I mentioned? Yeah, I know about VES book and I read it, and it is amazing, (thank you VES people for doing that!), but oh my god, the weight of this book makes it not user-friendly. Tips and tricks with small lines of code, automatic spreadsheets, examples of successful implementation of AI tools and so on? I would pay to have access to resource like this! (but of course it should be free). #vfx #cgi #vfxsupervisor #insouleffects #lovevfx

#gamedev #gamingindustry #gamingjob Hi everyone! Some of you may remember my recent posts about me looking for a job - I still am, but that's not the focus of today. A lot of my colleagues, extremely skilled ones, are looking for new jobs as well. I am unable to cover everyone in a similar situation among the people I've worked with for the last year or so. I hope nobody feels like it's unfair of me that I didn't include them - these are just some names from the top of my head. Let's go! Mikołaj Żelazny - an extremely skilled QA specialist; he joined the team I've been working with mid-work and caught up with the project in a blink, bringing the QA department to the next level. Łukasz Kwiatkowski - a great game designer and person who owned the combat design like an absolute champ; he is a unique mix of experience and diligence. Oskar Trochimowicz - an brilliant 3D artist, no matter what you ask of him, he will probably deliver something that exceeds your expectations. Piotr Wójtowicz - a talented VFX artist ready to bring your game to the next level; he is able to adapt quickly and take on any challenges and is a great person to collaborate with. I hope some of you might think back to this post if, by chance, you're ever in need of people with their skillsets. There is a possibility that, if any of my close colleagues are in need of that, I'll post another list or two, but I hope I won't have to and that everyone in need of a job right now will eventually find their place. ❤️ If you could leave a reaction for the visibility of the people I've mentioned, I'd be eternally thankful!

🏆 Let's Talk Awards and Credits in the VFX World! 🚀 Hey LinkedIn fam! 👋 Today, I stumbled upon a thought-provoking question raised by a Jr VFX artist on Reddit, and it's sparked a fascinating debate in my mind. 🤔 The question at hand: "Can you call yourself an award-winning VFX artist if you worked on a project that won the prize, but your name isn't on the plaque?" This got me thinking about the thin line between recognition and responsibility in our dynamic industry. Personally, I lean towards a firm "no" on this one. Why? Well, claiming such accolades without proper attribution seems a tad disrespectful, a bit naive, and potentially misleading. 🌟 Awards are a testament to skill, creativity, and hard work, but they're also a massive collaborative effort. In the world of VFX, projects often involve hundreds of talented individuals working tirelessly to bring one vision to life. Shouldn't credit be given where credit is due? 🙌 I'm curious to hear your take on this! Do you think it's fair game to label yourself as an award-winning artist if the award doesn't bear your name? Or do you agree that true recognition comes with the acknowledgment of individual contributions? Let's open up the floor to discussion! Share your thoughts, experiences, and let's navigate through this intriguing topic together. 💬 Drop your thoughts in the comments! How do you define the line between teamwork and individual recognition in the VFX world, where hundreds contribute to the final masterpiece? Let's keep this conversation rolling! 👇 #JoinTheDiscussion #VFXTalks 🚀 #VFXCommunity #AwardWinningDebate #VFXIndustryTalks

A few months ago, I foolishly argued on LinkedIn that Oppenheimer might have actually only required the credited VFX team of 27 people, given that Nolan's recent films featured an ever-decreasing number of VFX shots (Tenet only had 300) and most of the work was likely to be "invisible" 2D effects (i.e. removing signs of modern civilization, of which there wouldn't be much in the New Mexico desert). I also said that Nolan's "no CGI" assertion wasn't necessarily entirely false, given his preference for using IMAX film throughout the pipeline meant circumventing the digital stage altogether, including VFX, on as many shots as possible. A lot of people vehemently disagreed with me and pretty soon I was proven wrong on both counts, when it emerged that DNeg had credited 164 artists on their website. Fair enough. If I'd realised quite how disparaging of VFX Nolan had been, or noticed that most of the credited VFX team weren't actually artists, I perhaps wouldn't have bothered arguing that such a small team on such a big show was even possible, though I still don't think it's all that far-fetched. More recently, the Japanese production that just won the VFX Oscar has claimed that they produced 610 shots for Godzilla Minus One with a team of 35 people in 8 months. They were apparently able to achieve all this in such a short timeframe because shots were well planned out in pre-production and the director was also the VFX Supervisor. Of the 35 artists, 8 were credited as Compositors, though 2 of those are credited as FX artists as well. Regardless, that's less than 2.5 days' comp time per shot; shots that not only involve removing traces of modern civilisation, but greenscreen keying, matte paintings, fluid sims, set extensions and a giant CG creature destroying city-wide environments... finalled to a standard good enough to win the Oscar for best VFX. I've yet to see anyone question these claims. Directors downplaying the work of VFX artists is a contentious issue that naturally provokes an emotive reaction from the VFX community and that obviously had more to with the response I got to my comment than the credibility of Nolan's disingenuous attempts to market Oppenheimer as having "no CGI". But it strikes me that the only reason people aren't questioning the makers of Godzilla Minus One's far more tenuous claims is that they embellish the capabilities of the VFX artists rather than diminish them. Obviously, it's worth celebrating that they were able to achieve such impressive work, with such a small team, through innovative ways of working and that the director is championing the 35 VFX artists' significant contribution to the project. But if so few artists really did deliver all the post- in just 8 months, then they almost certainly didn't leave the office much in that time. That seems to me like far more of an issue than whether or not VFX artists are getting enough recognition from studios and directors for all their hard work.
