Thank you guys! I'll keep posting new stadiums. I have contacted every football club in Denmark and asked them if I could get references and pictures, make a visit to the stadium etc. So far the responses have been really good! eetu: You are absolutely right about the textured planes :-) !!

Hey Guys! I've made a visualising of FC Helsingørs(Danish football club) stadium in Houdini My goal is to make every football stadium in the 3 best football leagues in Denmark and then make it available to tour and vizualise the stadiums in real time for fans, on their smart devices by downloading an app. I'll use a game- engine but I have no idea which is best to use for the project. I have thought about Unity. But I really don't know what the best choice would be now. The stadium is also to find on orbolt,http://www.orbolt.com/asset/theis%3A%3Astadium , as a digital asset where it can change parameter like security, seats, benches etc. etc. The project so far: http://www.theisjensen.com/index.php/26-blogs/160-stadium-project Every help and advices would certainly be appreciated! Cheers :-)

Hi guys! I'm looking for an internship in Europe. Any feedback to my reel is also appreciated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzTDi_r0Pj0 Kind regards

Thanks a lot. The training material on 3D buzz looks very interresting.

Hi guys. I have major problems with a kite I try to rig. I have tried to find an answer in every possible free tutorial on sidefx.com but I can't make it work. I use bones and then I try capture them on the geometry. But it is impossible for me, they dosn't capture all the geometry and some of the bones can't be captured. Can you help me or do you have any good advices? Thank's in advance! - Theis kite.hipnc

Thank's a lot for sharing your thoughts! It sounds like a great idea to make some twist in the theme.

I will credit the Gorilla video and do everything possible to let people know that I have been inspired. My intentions are to create the island and then make effects(pyro, smoke, water sim, pops etc.) on it.

Hi guys! I have decided to create my demo reel. But it has been really hard to find something original to create. I have always liked the island from the Gorillaz almbum "Plastic Beach". Would I be concidered to be a theef if I create an island similar to the one in the music video? 40 mins in the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yxlTcoqNJ8 Cheers! Theis

Thank a lot! I'll create a demoreel now and begin to work hard on water simulations/fluids. I have a lot more confidence now that I've read your answers. Cheers!

Oh, that's because I've misspelled it : http://www.theisjensen.com *\\O//*

Marty, Do you as a professional think my work on theisensen.com would qualify me as a serious candidate?

Thank's a lot for the in depth comments! Do you know some specific companies that are willing to take chances with a hobbyist who had never worked before? I'm willing to work in Europe for almost nothing as long as I can get my foot into the door.

Thank's a lot guys! I appreciate you comments a lot. I guess I'll try to go into the area of fluids and smoke and see where it all ends. Do you think it would it be too early trying to get my foot into the door now? Maybe as a runner or something? What about an educational level. Is it recommended to have a degree in the field of computer graphics?

Hi there! I'm a hobbyist from Denmark trying to improve my Houdini skills. I like to look at all the tutorials and to build something from scratch and share it on orbolt. You can see some examples on my site http://www.theisjensen.com What do You guys think? In the future I would like to get a job in the 3D business but what is important to do to get your first job? Should I be able to work with other 3D application or maybe some compositing program? Or programming? Or is it enought to just stick to Houdini? Cheers! - Theis

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and links:-) I'll try to get a better understanding of the three topics you have mentioned. It's good to know where to have focus.
