Optimizing rig manipulation with GPU and parallel evaluation

For Siggraph I was lucky enough to be part of a paper we put together at Walt Disney Animation Studios. This paper dives into the findings we made during the transition to parallel rig evaluation and moving our deformers to the GPU. Please take a peek if you're at all interested in this type of work.

Big Hero 6

Had the chance to work on this awesome film! Lots of heart. Did some CFX shots on this film.

Frozen 2 Released! It was a fun show.

I had the opportunity to rig Elsa in Frozen 2. Along with her mother as a child. I also got to work alongside my supervisor to try and convert our rigs from running on a single thread, to be able to run in parallel. Our technology team was able to also convert our deformers to run on the GPU. We wrote a Siggraph paper describing the work that was done. I will put it in my next post. Hope you all enjoy Frozen 2. This is a demo we put on a display for people touring the studio to see the rigging process at Disney animation. It just shows how we start very rough and get notes to refine until we have a finished product that you see on the screen. We do this in collaboration with animation. I was lucky enough to work with Wayne Unten the supervising animator on Elsa. I learned a lot from Wayne. If you don't know his work, you should check it out here. https://www.instagram.com/wayne_unten/?hl=en or https://animatingforfun.tumblr.com/ This is a gift from Wayne when I
