About

I’m Alexandre Maurier, a rigging and VFX technical artist focused on production-ready character setups. I build modular, high-fidelity body and facial rigs in Blender/production pipelines, ensuring clean deformations and animator-friendly controls. I also handle FX tasks like cloth and accessory dynamics in Houdini, aiming for stable, reliable results.

Alongside rigging and FX, I support pipeline and collaboration by developing robust rig reference structures and authoring custom Python tools to automate repetitive workflows. I’m also a 3D artist who models, sculpts, and helps craft assets and materials for cohesive visuals. With experience across tools such as Maya, Houdini, Blender, Unreal Engine, and Substance 3D Painter, I enjoy turning complex character requirements into efficient systems for teams.
