SHED animation studio and SideFX are co-producing an animated short called “Outside”. The worldwide premiere of the teaser launched today at TAAFI - Toronto Animation Arts Festival International. The teaser was fully produced in Houdini - including modeling, characters, animation, lighting and rendering in Mantra. If you weren't at TAAFI, you can see it here!

Really very cool, just love the wobble of the cat food, perfect.

Looks wonderful. The plaintive pawing and wriggling against the glass made me laugh.

Loved it!

Well done guys.

Wow, awesome work!

would love to see a making-of, especially rigging and character animation…

Me too! The animation looks great

All but shading…

…still can be fixed in color correction.

SHED will be presenting a “making-of” at the MHUG (Montreal Houdini User Group) this evening:
