Hey everyone, this TV pilot that I was responsible for the animation on just dropped on Adult Swim. I had some help from some other super awesome Houdini friends, Matt Siegel, Bruno Cohen, and TJ Pulliam, who you may see around the discord and elsewhere, plus Brandon Lester who did some awesome one-off FX sequences. It's been a while since we finished it, spending most of 2022 on this project from around April through November.

It was created by Conner O'Malley, Cole Kush, and Brendan O'Hare. Cole created the characters in daz we worked with a studio that helped record and clean up the mocap, and we handled everything else in Houdini, leveraging KineFX, Vellum, and Solaris pretty heavily. It was our first time using Solaris for a big project and the last time I will ever use Redshift.

It was quite an overwhelming undertaking for me as I was also responsible for getting everything rendered and figuring out the pipeline and everything. I had no idea what I was doing in retrospect and it was a huge learning experience! Very grateful for the opportunity though. Now you can enjoy it!
