Hello
Everyone

My name is Ruiding Feng, A.K.A. Richard at school. I graduated from Boston University with a joint major of degree in Math & Computer Science. Having mastered half math and half computer science courses there, I have now decided to pursue a master's degree in VFX with a focus on FX at SCAD.

​

I am profoundly passionate about Houdini because I believe it represents the future of 3D graphic software and the application of computer graphics, making it worth investing my career in. Due to Houdini's procedural and data-driven nature, I hope to apply the knowledge I have gained in mathematics and computer science to Houdini, including areas related to AI, such as machine learning and deep learning.

​

Pivoting to a completely new field is challenging yet hopeful. The lack of fundamental knowledge in the field made the beginning very difficult for me. However, just as TV series 'Silicon Valley' inspired me to choose a CS-related major at BU, I now hope to work in VFX to inspire other viewers in a similar way.

 

I am so excited about the journey ahead and eager to see where my passion for Houdini and VFX will take me.
