Professional Development

Welcome to my professional development page, where my passion for continuous learning and staying at the forefront of technology drives everything I do. Here, I share my journey of exploring and mastering new tools, techniques, and innovations—from real-time technology and advanced simulations in Houdini and Cinema 4D to the latest pipeline enhancements using AI. Dive in to discover my latest projects and insights as I strive to create extraordinary imagery and remain relevant in an ever-evolving industry.

Software: Maxon Cinema 4D:

PipelineStudy: Liquid Fill Emitter

After many years of relying on third-party solutions for impressive liquid simulations in Cinema 4D, Maxon has finally introduced native fluid simulation capabilities in the 2025 version. Once this feature became available, I had to dive in and take a look. I am very pleased with the results from my first attempt. This will open up numerous options when working in a Cinema-based pipeline, and not having to round-trip a simulation from Houdini back into Cinema is a significant advantage.

Software: SideFX Houdini

Houdini is a software program I have always wanted to explore further as a 3D artist. I find its workflow truly fascinating. As I develop my skills, I realize that it’s not just about the software itself; it’s the methodologies and processes behind the tool that captivate me. Below are some highlights from my personal study of this incredible software.
