May be the status quo but don't fool yourself, animators don't tend to need
much other than a good rig and toolset around and decent performance, I don't
think it is a defining factor and here at Realise we have tested it in
production yet again.
With our latest project we animated using Maya
Agreed

A question for Houdini users:
My main concern is characters. From modeling to texturing to rigging
Agree 100%
It is the animation toolset that is not there yet although IMHO it is quite
simple to fix… let's see ;-)

- All rendering go via Arnold, PRMan or similar.
So the reality today for big film work is that it is a very very fragmented
toolset.
In advertising things are moving towards that too although it is tricky given

Tantalizing posts :) You said there were plans for a better modeling toolset,
can we expect similar plans for the animation toolset and the character
A rigger is perfect for this because it is fundamental for great deformations
so I am always inclined to give the retopo to them… after all you can do the

Thanks Perry, my only intention is to help to transition those artists and
specially the ICE wizards to transition like I already have done, to Houdini.
Let's see where the journey takes us.

You would be surprised about the being an adult factor in the Houdini camp..
just pop by one of the Houdini User Groups and you will see lots of kids having
fun (lots of grey hair sometimes but still kids having fun)
