We are excited to announce our next speaker: Tim van Helsdingen!

Tim has been hooked on CG since he was a teenager. After experimenting across various corners of the field, he settled into freelancing as a Houdini FX artist for over a decade. He’s also been making tutorials for years, and his Houdini tutorials on YouTube have helped dozens of people learn the ropes and land jobs in the industry.

Tim:
“Everyone keeps asking the same question. How does AI actually fit into creative workflows? I asked it too… Then I stopped asking and built something!

Imagine this: Agents moving between the creative apps on every machine in your network, calling on whatever program the work needs, or reaching out to cloud APIs when the job calls for it. Not just chat windows. Actual jobs. With priorities. With dependencies. Blender roughs out models on worker one. ComfyUI generates textures on worker two. Unreal pulls it all together on worker three. One pipeline, no hassle.

Context-aware. Every supported app offers an “Add to context” option, so models, snippets, and references drop straight into the prompt. The agents learn from the work you and your team do. Those lessons become skills, saved to your own server, ready for the next job. Or share them with the community through an online library anyone can pull from”.

Fantastic work Tim van Helsdingen! 👏 @timvanhelsdingen is a freelance CG-Generalist / Houdini FX artist based in the Netherlands. He’s always been passionate about CG and has worked with a great variety of studios and agencies. Tim also has many free CG learning videos on his YouTube channel.
