What Scanline VFX Looks for in Your Portfolio
🏭 CFX / Simulation
Demonstrate cloth, hair, and creature simulation work in Houdini or Maya nCloth. Lead roles require evidence of managing full simulation pipelines on large-scale productions. Show both hero assets and large-crowd sim experience.
🔥 FX Artist
Houdini is the core tool. Show procedural destruction, fluid sims, and fire/smoke with a clear technical breakdown. Include work that demonstrates understanding of render integration, not just simulations in isolation.
🌎 Compositing
Nuke fluency is expected. Show breakdown reels with visible layers, colour science understanding, and integration of CG elements into live-action plates. Feature film or episodic credits are a strong differentiator.
🌋 Matte Painting / Environment
Photoreal environments with visible projection and set extension techniques. Scanline works primarily in live-action context so film-scale environment work beats game art stylisation. Include reference-to-final comparisons.
