VES VFX INDUSTRY 2023 โ GROWTH, GLOBALIZATION AND CHANGE
Read more: VES VFX INDUSTRY 2023 โ GROWTH, GLOBALIZATION AND CHANGEhttps://www.vfxvoice.com/vfx-industry-growth-globalization-and-change/
โThe number of productions globally is now being rationalized to the reality of what can be produced. Demand was outstripping supply to such an extent that it was actually becoming unsustainable. What we are seeing now is more of a sensible and sustainable approach to content creation, and it is finding equilibrium โ which is a good thing. There is still growth, but it is a lot more structured and sustainable.โ
“VFX global market revenue will climb from $26.3 billion in 2021 to $48.9 billion in 2028”
โDemand for VFX looks likely to continue, though there is still the challenge of delivering the work within budgets and compressed schedules at a time of rising costs, particularly of labor.โ
โThe biggest challenge to our industry is bringing in the next generation and providing them with training and opportunities to succeed. Many of us were able to get a break somewhere or discover the potential for a career in VFX thanks to technical training or personal connections.”

Chinese’s DeepSeek-Coder-V2 – Breaking the Barrier of Closed-Source Models in open source Code Intelligence
Read more: Chinese’s DeepSeek-Coder-V2 – Breaking the Barrier of Closed-Source Models in open source Code IntelligenceAn open-source Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) code language model that achieves performance comparable to GPT4-Turbo in code-specific tasks. Specifically, DeepSeek-Coder-V2 is further pre-trained from an intermediate checkpoint of DeepSeek-V2 with additional 6 trillion tokens. Through this continued pre-training, DeepSeek-Coder-V2 substantially enhances the coding and mathematical reasoning capabilities of DeepSeek-V2, while maintaining comparable performance in general language tasks. Compared to DeepSeek-Coder-33B, DeepSeek-Coder-V2 demonstrates significant advancements in various aspects of code-related tasks, as well as reasoning and general capabilities. Additionally, DeepSeek-Coder-V2 expands its support for programming languages from 86 to 338, while extending the context length from 16K to 128K.

Fabric Software has discontinued work on Fabric Engine, its much-praised framework for developing custom tools for VFX and games pipelines, along with its supporting tools for DCC software.
a computational engine, that will enable web developers to tap into a computer’s multi-core power to bring multi-threaded performance in a web browser.
Used for Image/video processing – 3D Interaction (games, storytelling, interactive manuals) – Perceptual/Visual computing – Simulation (physics, crowds, financial, etc) – Visualization for use in medical, engineering, and oil and gas – Raw computation – Data mining – Business intelligence – Semantic analysis – Recommendation engines – Large-scale simulations – Other computationally intensive applications

Custom bokeh in a raytraced DOF render
Read more: Custom bokeh in a raytraced DOF render
To achieve a custom pinhole camera effect with a custom bokeh in Arnold Raytracer, you can follow these steps:
- Set the render camera with a focal length around 50 (or as needed)
- Set theย F-Stopย to a high value (e.g., 22).
- Set the focus distance as you require
- Turn on DOF
- Place a plane a few cm in front of the camera.
- Texture the plane with a transparent shape at the center of it. (Transmission with no specular roughness)
