Adrien Lourdelle

to me

Hi AKASH,,

I was moving from a country to another ...

Thanks for your email, It's a pleasure to be a source of inspiration.

Concerning the tool I used to make those effects, most of the time it's based on commercial softwares like Maya.

I also used some internal tools for scripting and for Fluids simulations.

Those works have been done in 2 different companies : BUF (http://www.buf.com/) and Double Negative (http://www.dneg.com/)

Adrien.
