Christopher Hosken
CG Generalist | Generalist TD

Hey! I'm Christopher Hosken
I'm an aspiring Generalist TD currently studying Computer Animation at Bournemouth University. I love all aspects of the VFX/Animation pipeline and am adaptable and willing to fit multiple positions. I am passionate about all things tech and am currently exploring Artificial Intelligence, Web Applications, and all things USD! I am currently looking for TD roles in pipeline, FX and RnD.
Pipeline
My experience as both an artist and a developer has allowed me to write complex, user-friendly tools in production. Currently, I am experimenting and with how USD can be used to streamline and create modern studio pipelines.
FX
Primarily working in Houdini, I love working with fluids, pyro, vellum, and muscles. I'm growing an interest in CFX but love working on a variety of shots!
R&D
I have a strong mathematics, physics, and programming background with knowledge of Python, C++, Qt, OpenGL, and USD. I'm currently learning web development with Vite and React and seeing how the future of VFX can be web-based.
