!! IRON LUNG SPOILER !! 4K version of the video can be seen on my Vimeo. Link in bio. In 2025 I was fortunate to be contacted by Mark Fischbach aka: @markiplier about learning Houdini FX, which expanded into tutoring some of his team members as well. During that time I was eventually asked if I would help out on Iron Lung. Working directly with Chloe Gray, and Wes Meyers of Burning Tractor, I was tasked with simulations, and procedural FX elements for the finale eel death shot of the film. I’m grateful for the opportunity to work with these wonderful people, and honored to be even a small part of this successful project. Congratulations to all involved.

Link in bio. #sidefxhoudini #fxartist #procedural #geotracker #computerart 12 May 2026 Collection of all my GeoTracker test tracks so far. I plan to do more fun example clips as I get free time. Tasks I’ve found it can be useful for (so far): - Rigid Object Tracking - Tracked Camera extraction (when a track camera not supplied to artists, assist in scene recreation) - Camera focal length estimation - Motion extraction (handheld camera, wave generator, character sway) - Motion for collision geo - Motion for simulation emitters - Aligning 3D geometry ( backplate projection, shadow/light catcher, 3D holdout mattes) - Unique 3D velocity fields based on footage motion The list keeps growing each time I use GeoTracker. Now that @keentools GeoTracker is in public beta, go and check it out, it’s a fun, easy to use tracker. Full disclosure too, Keen Tools did commission me to record the tutorial media for the Quick Start and Deep Dive guides. #houdini #keentools #geotracker 30 Apr 2026 GeoTracker used to extract a tracked camera, then I built proxy geo of the environment based on that camera perspective for sim collisions, and shadow catching. Vellum grains were then used for the “dirt’plosion”. This plugin is so simple to use, yet wields such great results quickly, that making FX clips like these are fun. I get to focus on the creative part much more. I should mention that all of the examples I’ve posted so far are rendered in camera with Karma XPU. In some cases “comp” (being used very loosely here) was done with Copernicus, but mostly the clips were rendered straight from Karma XPU as is, backplate and all.
