Pipeline TD
As a Pipeline TD I was involved in most of the departments like modeling, lookdev, setdress, rigging, layout, animation and lighting. I optimized the loading times of scenes and improved viewport interactivity by making sure that we always load a minimal amount of data required to do the job of a given department. This was achieved with some custom plugins based on the maya scene-assembly nodes a customized version of the gpuCache node and custom translators/procedurals for arnold.
I communicate with every department to identify the biggest challenges and bottlenecks and try to find solutions.

Rigging
For Yoyo I developed the shader based facial rig setup and a tool to easily set it up for new characters. The main challenge was making sure that the shader in the rig and lookdev are in sync with each other. For that I wrote some script to export the facial animation from the rig and import and apply the data onto the full lookdev shader setup.
