We'd love to hear from you. Send us a text! The Naked Texture Artist is a podcast where VFX/animation veterans have deep and honest conversations about their challenges and growth as working artists. It is very exciting to find people who think deep and hard thoughts about the work we do and the industry we work in. We are not short on people, who can teach us how to carry out the work, but the bigger questions about the VFX industry and our role in it, are harder to answer. Daniel Harkness, in addition to his work as a compositor and motion designer, writes his excellent observations on LinkedIn. I think for all of us, this period, in the industries of VFX, animation and games, has been a grim reminder that we are living in a house of cards. Many, if not all, artists have had to have some serious reflection on their career, and what their future will look like. Daniel's excellent writing is very useful to help understand the market forces that underpin our work, as well as the value each of us have in terms of dollars and cents.  I hope getting to know Daniel's writing can be as instructive and helpful for you too, as it has been for me. Daniel Harkness' website:https://www.danielharkness.com/   Daniel's excellent 8 part series on the value of a VFX artist:https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/what-my-value-vfx-artist-part-1-daniel-harkness/ Also mentioned in this episode is:The famous blog of VFX Soldier:https://vfxsoldier.wordpress.com/  Joseph Bell's insightful global overview of VFX:https://www.vfxatlas.com/  Why is VFX dying?

Sebastian Sylwan has a wealth of experience, having been CTO at Weta Digital, Scanline, and Felix & Paul Studios, as well as Director of Technology at Digital Domain. He's spent his career at the intersection of art and technology, helping world-class teams push the boundaries of visual effects, immersive media, and real-time workflows. In this episode, he reflects on the challenges of innovating in production environments—where the pressure to deliver can often stifle meaningful experimentation—and offers a thoughtful look at how our industry might evolve if we rethink our relationship with technology. We talk about what it means to be truly innovative, how to design systems that scale while still empowering artists, and why creative industries so often fall into patterns of short-term thinking. Sebastian also shares some candid thoughts on how leadership, culture, and communication play a critical role in making or breaking new ideas. If you've ever struggled to bring a great tool or pipeline into a legacy studio, or wondered why some groundbreaking tech never catches on, this episode is for you.

Believe it or not, I did hear a cicada chirping just a few days ago. Must have been a Late-Comer Boy, trying to attract a female. The buzzing sound is made in the Tymbals (on the belly side of the insect). It literally is a quick clicking sound that creates a smooth buzzing. If you hear clapping as well, it will be smacking the wings on the abdomen. Egg-laying is very easy to spot: a characteristic “Herring bone” pattern on twigs with a thickness of a pencil. We're also not far away from the end of the Black Field Crickets' truuu truuuu truuu singing in the evening. The further north you go, the longer you'll hear those quite loud sounds in your lawn. They're male mating calls, attracting females who are laying eggs in soil to hatch next spring (November). Damage: eat a lot of grass from lawn/paddock. Easily attracted to lights, and noisy all night. A fabulous characteristic rasping sound can be heard during the nighttime, starting about 30 minutes after dark: the sound is made by both male and female tree weta. They communicate to keep in touch – Auckland and Wellington tree weta are rather social species. They live in harem-like communities with a dominant (large-headed) male and a couple of mature females, plus some juveniles. They shelter during the day in the same cavity. This is mating season and often you can hear frequent communications. Females lay eggs in soft soil, and young ones emerge in spring. Go outside into the garden with a torch and you'll find them – patience! In the afternoon to early evening, you can often hear a faint “Zzitssss” noise – often impossible to tell where it originates. It's usually a call with an irregular pattern, and it's unmistakable as Katydids. These orthopterans have the ability to “throw their voice” —like ventriloquists— to put off possible predators that may hunt by following the noise to its source. They chew buds of flowers and foliage and can do a bit of cosmetic damage to roses and dahlias in autumn (although Julie tends to disagree with that statement – she moves them on with force!). Generally speaking, the katydids overwinter as eggs and hatch again in springtime as “nymphs”: miniature versions of the adult insect. But I have seen a few of them going right through the winter, snacking of tasty leaves of Mistletoes in the garden. No doubt they shelter from the occasional frosts by staying deep within the host plants LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
