Hello, how about skills in blender 3d. But I'm just learning Houdini TDs

Hello, how about skills in blender 3d. But I'm just learning Houdini TDs

we're ideally looking for crew that have a few hears of houdini under their belt..


I should also clarify this is not a production/artist role - At Animal Logic a 'TD' does not contribute to shot output, but develops tools (houdini based in this case)for artists.

.. and if there are any Houdini fx/cfx/ crowd/grooming artists that are very technical and wish to switch from an artistic shot production role to a technical TD role, then we are happy to train them up with the relevant TD skills.

Just a note that we still have positions available for mid and senior Houdini TD roles and the link has been updated

also feel free to PM me with any questions about these roles

Would working remotely from Quebec be an option?

Would working remotely from Quebec be an option?

unfortunately while we do have Work From Home, all our current positions require crew to attend the studio's (vanvouver/Sydney) for a couple of days a week

in an attempt to lure some highly technical artists involved with fx/charfx/crowd in the the world of Pipeline TDs this is our latest job advert:
