I’m really excited to announce that the writing of The Shader Survival Guide is done! We’re now working on the final formatting for this e-book about shader development using Shader Graph in Unity. I also want to mention that this is an interactive e-book that will include a Unity 6 project with lots of shader samples to help you understand the topics covered. This book contains more than 500 pages of knowledge I’ve gained over 10 years working as a Technical Artist in the video game industry. It will be released in the last days of June, so if you’re interested in these topics, consider adding it to your wishlist! We’ll keep you updated with more news. #shader #shadergraph #madewithunity #shadersurvivalguide #hlsl #gamedev #gameart #vfx

Classical 3D rendering is so cooked. In the future, every pixel will be generated, not rendered. But until then, you get generative AI nodes inside Nuke. The sky's the limit when you blend classical visual effects with generative ai. We’re on the brink of fully generative content—where creation becomes so abstracted that you can literally turn your mind inside out onto any canvas, from image to video to 3D. For now though, you get predictable curves and animation in the world’s greatest VFX tool — Nuke.

Ok finally dug into Meta's new Movie Gen paper. Text-to-video is cool and all but, to me the precise editing feature is the game changer. I mean just look at these results 🤯 It can handle complex VFX tasks like replacing environments, doing set extensions, swapping characters, removing items, adding particle effects with realistic lighting interaction. The coolest bit to me is how they trained this model, because paired before/after vfx editing datasets are super scarce. TL;DR They taught it video editing through a clever three-stage process: 1. Started with image editing data, treating it like single-frame video edits. 2. Created synthetic video editing tasks by animating still image edits and using AI models (like SAM and DINO) for object segmentation. 3. The model generated edited videos, and then learned to reconstruct the originals from the edited version Meta calls this "video editing via backtranslation" and the results speak for themselves.

Kasoombo. A movie that will make your chest swell with pride for our forefathers, their sacrifices and our religious teachings. An extremely gripping movie about the true story of how 52 villagers protect Shartunjay Temple complex from the Islamic tyrant Allauddin Khilji's attack. The movie shows the unprecedented sacrifices made by our ancestors to protect and preserve our Sanatan Dharma during unimaginable atrocities by Khilji. Excellent script, direction, VFX and acting. Depict the high level of knowledge prevalent then, our rich culture, riti riwaaj, the mindset, vicharsharni ... that we have lost. - via SM

It has been about 45 days since I was laid off at my 6 figure gamedev/engineering job. Here's what I've accomplished since going full time indie gamedev. - Happiness is at all time highs.. The creative excitement I've felt everyday has been amazing! For about 15 days I kind of dabbled around different areas to figure out what I wanted to work on and sink myself into. - I dabbled with VFX authoring in Three.js - I built the basis of an MMO engine in Rust Language and rendered it in Three.js I then decided I wanted to focus on something realistic and get a game out the door that could turn me from wanting to be a full time indie gamedev, to actually doing it, because realistically none of those projects are going to make me a living. I settled on building a Roblox game because I felt I like I could make something pretty unique and cool with a built in userbase. I chose roblox because it has a good platform of discovery for new games, which I think is pretty crucial for indie devs. - I then ported Plume my threejs library for Niagra like VFX to Roblox. - completed the full gameloop for my roblox game. What's featured in the video - Several menu types for kind of figuring out the direction and some placeholder menus - Cross server guilds/parties/queing - Itemization - Loot Tables - Inventory - Character Equipment - Item Upgrading/Leveling - Some interaction polishing - 1 Completed class with actions, unique boss drops, vfx/sfx - Boss State Machines / Encounter Systems - 1 Boss encounter - Everything is server authorative to prevent cheating. - Sound system Over the next 45 days my focus is on finish the last of the systems that will make up the game(solo quest/mission(story) content, monster codex, move raid board/social from the isolated menu you see in the video to the newer full screen menus, leaderboards. Once those systems are complete it will be time to then focus on just creating content so hopefully a few of you out there will come join and play! If any of this looks interesting or you want to follow the journey of trying to make it as a solo indie developer, follow along! #gamedev #indiedev #robloxdev

I've been spending more time with Bezi to see how far I can push vibe coding a game on the Unity Editor. So far, I'm pretty happy with what I can achieve with Bezi. Here are some learnings: - Even though I use Bezi to do all agentic coding, I still have to perform a few small manual tasks in the Unity Editor - As a result, I feel like I am getting a hang of Unity's complex and clunky UI, which actually feels good! - This is one of those examples where Vibe Coding is a great way to learn game dev. - For big features, I can't state the importance of asking the agent to create a plan first before implementing the feature. It can work wonders. Most of the bigger features/ssytems starts with a clear plan. - The biggest strength about working with Unity Engine is the Unity Asset Store, there's so much good stuff in there, 3D assets, shaders, vfx etc that can really spice up your game, that other game enginers will need to build from scratch. - Because Unity Assets Stores sell UI assets packs, I was able to implement decent looking UI fairly quickly. For those of you that vibe code games, you know how much of a pain it is to implement UI. - I did meet a few hiccups along the way where Bezi seems to struggle a little with implementing some features, but usually with some retries it works out at the end, though it burns a ton of tokens. After spending more time with Bezi, I'm still feeling good about using it. I am able to get this PvZ style autobattler working in a few days!

Netflix aquired Ben Affleck’s AI film startup InterPositive for up to $600 million (based on certain milestones). Affleck’s AI tool augments existing filmmaking workflows: ▫️directors can train a small model from their own dailies ▫️improves the post-production editorial process ▫️more quickly mix, color and finish films (use their trained model to change shots, add props, enhance backgrounds or remove visuals while keeping consistency) Seems similar to work James Cameron is doing with AI and VFX. Cameron says his interest in GenAI is to reduce post-production costs by making the “cadence faster, so your throughput cycle is faster and artists get to move on and do other cool things.” If AI can reduce VFX costs by 1/2, Cameron thinks that means more blockbusters (including original IP or up-and-coming directors that wouldn’t otherwise get greenlit). Affleck mentions “getting more episodes” of your favourite TV shows with his tech. If Affleck hits the full $600 million cash deal, this looks to be Netflix’s largest tech acquisition ever. Whether or not the tech is worth that much, Netflix is getting the Affleck halo of a well-known (but still skeptical) AI practitioner. He has been Hollywood’s go-to takesman (eg. Rogan) on how AI can or can not change Hollywood (he doesn’t think it has creative chops for scriptwriting and thinks unions will protect a lot of acting/writing jobs for foreseeable future). If Netflix wants to ramp its use of AI, Affleck’s narrow view of the technology’s use makes it less threatening and helps with creative talent (David Fincher already using it for Brad Pitt film, probably the Once Upon A Time In Hollywood sequel). “It’s not about text prompting or building something from nothing,” Affleck says. “You’re building a model from your own material.” *** Lucas Shaw at Bloomberg on deal structure: Netflix CCO and CTO full interview Affleck:

I've compiled some performance tips gleaned from working on my 1 million GPU AI steering agents project. I want to see Twitter compression destroy this video. 🚀 GPGPU: N-Body - O(n^2) - simulations are easily processed in parallel. GPUs are really good at parallel processing = 🫶. 🌐 Spatial hashing: Accelerate local group search via sorting into an unbounded grid (int3 cell -> 1D hash/array index). ⏩ Asynchronous compute: Once the data is on the GPU, both the simulation and rendering are handled there. There's no need to synchronize the physics step to visual update frames with decoupled rendering (see below). 🔄 Batched/staggered update cycle: Spread updates over multiple dispatches/frames. 🎭 Decoupled simulation-rendering: Simulation step can be much lower than visual updates. Use interpolation and/or simple velocity integration. In my case I'm passing the smoothed-out position and velocity of the boid 'particles' to VFX Graph for rendering. With these techniques you can get 100,000 boids even mobile/smartphones. 📱 Please don't mind the emojis, I like to flavour and stylize my text. #gamedev #indiedev

Making commercials and films with AI isn’t just exciting — it’s the future. That said, the hardest part isn’t the technology, it’s finding people you genuinely love working with, and sharpening your storytelling skills. Those two things will never be replaced by “clicking buttons.” The fundamentals that carry over from traditional filmmaking remain the same: 📕 Strong stories 🤝 Strong relationships If you treat these as secondary, you’ll eventually feel stuck and frustrated. But if you keep them front and center — valued, protected, and constantly nurtured — you’ll thrive in this new era. I’m deeply grateful to Julien Vallée and Google for giving me the opportunity to be part of this project. Here’s to many more. Director: Julien Vallée (Julien Vallee) Composer: Blackpaw AI artists: Julien Vallée, Jordan Daniel Chesney Motion design: Kyle Harter, David Urbinati Flame artist: Mathieu Arvisais VFX artists: Le Jumper, Empty Frame (Jeremie Drapeau & Francois Careau) Designer: Kelsey Lim Sound design: David Urbinati Producer: McKenzie Hayes Lead producer: Angela Long Google Maps Brand Creative Senior Brand Marketing Director: Max Kaplan Group Creative Lead, Search & Maps: Daniel Chandler

Finally found a good spot to show this Destroyer Thruster tech! (Not game-breaking, I promise.) If you let go of your movement inputs while thrusting, you won't clamber. That means you can ramp up certain surfaces! For clarity, your inputs should be: - (whatever movement you need to set up) - Thruster - AFTER Thruster starts, let go until you collide with the object and go airborne. If all goes well, you'll just pop up like I do. You probably don't even need a smooth ramp, you could realistically abuse some map geometry for some cool jumps. I used these blue tank things as an example, but I'd be willing to bet you could slam yourself into a ton of different objects for easy air. I'll need to do more testing. This feels really similar to some old tricks you could with Halo Reach's evade. It's pretty cool being able to apply old Halo knowledge here on Marathon. Anyway, let me know what you think!

This guy is turning every frame of his bedroom into a high-end commercial set and printed $28,700 in commissions this month by selling these "live-edit" assets to digital stores. The workflow that prints money from a single bedroom cam: > raw footage: record 10 seconds of you holding a plain steel tumbler > Gemini Omni prompt: "transform steel tumbler to glass bottle with glowing orange liquid, match physics and hand-grip" > environment swap: "turn toy shelf into a functioning aquarium with floating goldfish" > lighting pass: "open window curtains, cast realistic sunlight across the desk, add lamp glow" The results are indistinguishable from professional VFX work that usually requires a 10-person crew and weeks of post-production. Earnings breakout: > 5 custom ad assets for a beverage brand: $12,500 > 4 interactive shop interior renders: $9,200 > direct licensing of "live-aquarium" loop: $7,000 Most product photographers are still fighting with studio lights, reflection management, and expensive glass props. He bypassed the physical studio setup for the cost of a Google AI Pro subscription.
