@OzoneStoryTech is hiring, yet again... 2 roles this time.

@OzoneStoryTech is hiring, yet again... 2 roles this time. First is to build world class deformers (and other rigging nodes and capabilities) for Ozone Studio. A Pirate Wizard, that works well with our other Pirate Wizards, and has the kind of math skills and rigging understanding to really help our character tools shine... all at 60+ fps. Really, we are doing some crazy stuff that will change how character artists think about moving and deforming things... not just a pile of boring old joints and blendshapes here ;) ozone3d.com/careers/senior…
Cooking @OzoneStoryTech Subdivs are incredibly fast... check it out! Design your assets for Subdivs properly, target the proper render resolution, and you will wait mere seconds smooth awesome results :)
Let's see if we get a copyright issue, but streching my super lame animation legs to show off @OzoneStoryTech Subdivs here. 10 Characters, millions of polygins, all running in realtime in @UnrealEngine 5.7 and barely showing up in the profilier.
Software Development is hard, specifically making a user experience that is clean, intuitive and works as expected every time. Its a fight worth fighting, but man... it can be tedious. It's the difference between software feeling like a professional tool vs. a TD Script.
Ozone Assets are built from several core building blocks. "Elements" which are the base nodes, "Components" which wrap them up into useful ideas, then into "Modules" to achieve specific artistic results (a nose, or mouth or arm), Finally everything gets assembled @Avengers style into a "Rig" like a Biped or Quadruped. Ozone Studio will ship with a complete set of these Elements, Components, Modules and Rigs... allowing you to spend more time making characters, and less time building Rigs. A few Component mockups :)
