Available to hire
I’m Pascal Gaubertier, an FX Artist and Technical Director with over 20 years of experience in advertising, cinema and series. I specialize in complex simulations (fluids, destruction, pyros) and high-end photoreal rendering. I’m an expert in Houdini & Maya and proficient in advanced compositing (multi-pass, Nuke, Photoshop, Capture One). I’m accustomed to tight deadlines, blending technical rigor with artistic eye to deliver impactful visuals.
I thrive on challenging production pipelines, creating internal tools in Houdini to optimize workflows, mentoring juniors, and collaborating across teams. Available for freelance, remote or on-site work in Paris.
