Summary
I`am Mahmoud Youssef
I will be glad joing your team, I have all the criteria you want in a team player innovative solutions fast thinking technical skill, Also equipped with great communication skills and strong knowledge of feature film pipeline and production. Skilled in Maya, Rigging and python.
I have substantial experience working on Maya, I have 8+ years of production experience, especially with technical parts like rendering, rigging, scripting and dynamics. I have a great knowledge of python and MEL.
I`m concentrating on automating everything in the process ,so i started with creating an auto-rig for the facial called FemtoRig, Femtorender, and FemtoEnvironment,They are created in python, Although I have took C++ courses, however, I’ve yet to find the opportunity to implement my knowledge in my projects.
I have a solid understanding of the musculature and topology of both figure and facial anatomy. Also I have good experience in complex vehicle rigging in Maya for film and TV broadcasts.
I have been responsible for the rigging and rendering work-flow for a TV series for 3 seasons. I have created a python script to generate a procedural facial rigging joint based and used it for rigging more than 250 characters for the TV series, and more than 70 characters for the “Kiral Sakir” Movie.
I`m really self-motivated, I’m working really hard to push my knowledge boundaries, and I do not accept less than 100% success.
