My name is Wojciech Danilo and I'm a long term this forum and Houdini user (10+ years) and I truly love Sesi what you did to the VFX industry. I admire your achievements and just want to let you know, that I'm sure that without Houdini, the current world of VFX would be completely different, much worse. That's also why after working for years as TD in various VFX studios across Europe started my own company, trying to create software which would allow for awesome node-based data processing in other domains than 3D (of course I knew Nuke etc, but there is a lot to improve in this domain).
So I started Flowbox ( https://flowbox.io [flowbox.io] ), a node based VFX platform allowing for the fastest rotoscoping and compositing workflow on the market. If you like Houdini, you should fell in love with the ideology here. Seriously, check out the video:
I'm not longer full-time involved in this project (I'm running https://luna-lang.org [luna-lang.org]
- node based language for data science), but I love the guys behind Flowbox and I admire their passion to deliver the best tool on the market.
They've just released Flowbox 1.7, and its a big release, with integrated Mocha Planar Tacker, a new curve editing tools combining B-splines and Beziers together and a ton of other tools (again, check out the above video).
Mikolaj Valencia (Flowbox's CEO) together with Carlos Conceicao (Road To Comp) will have a live facebook webinar tomorrow, so if you are interested in Flowbox technology, its future development or would like to ask us some questions, please join us there. It would be more than awesome to have you guys with us
Webinar: 14 of August at 9 PM (WEST time) (1 pm PDT | 4 pm EDT | 10 pm CEST | 1:30 am IST | 3 am CST): https://web.facebook.com/events/666426783714447/ [web.facebook.com]
And of course in case of any questions, I'd love to answer them here as well!
