CARSTEN BAARS

FX Technical Director & Houdini Artist, specialising in large-scale RBD destruction, pyro & fluid simulations and procedural systems for feature film, series and commercials.

With 4+ years in VFX and 5+ productions, I work across the full FX pipeline — from asset development and HDA tooling to shot FX and final render passes. Strong background in Houdini, VEX, Python and tool development.

Available for on-site and remote production work. Based in Germany, open to relocation for the right project.
