Houdini FX Artist (Liquids, Particles, Cloth) - White-Label Partner

Prismea Studio is a Lausanne-based studio producing 3D product animation and motion design for Swiss and European brands. We are looking for an FX artist to handle the shots our generalists and our AI pipeline cannot produce. WHAT WE NEED, CONCRETELY Controlled, photoreal simulation around consumer products: liquid pours and splashes, cream and gel textures, powder and particles, bubbles, cloth and soft-body, and product reveals driven by simulation. Cosmetics, fragrance, food and drink are our main categories. DELIVERABLES WE WILL ORDER REGULARLY (please price each one): 1) One FX shot of 3-5 seconds added to an existing product animation (liquid pour or splash) 2) The same, for a powder or particle effect 3) A cloth or soft-body shot 4) A full 10-second product film where the simulation IS the film 5) Simulation only, delivered as a cache or geometry sequence, for another artist to light and render 6) One extra revision on a simulation that is already cached REQUIREMENTS - Houdini (or an equivalent you can defend), and the ability to work from a 3D model and a lighting setup we supply - Be explicit about render time and who pays for it - this is where FX budgets explode and we want no surprise on the invoice - Tell us your realistic notice period before you can start a shot - Full commercial rights, white-label, NDA and non-circumvention PLEASE ANSWER THESE IN YOUR PROPOSAL (a proposal without prices will not be reviewed): 1. A fixed price or tight range for each deliverable above, and what is INCLUDED and EXCLUDED in each. 2. For each line: working days from brief to first simulation preview, and to final delivery. 3. How many revision rounds are included, and the price of one extra. 4. Are cache and project files included, and at what price if not. 5. Send 2-3 specific samples (a direct link or file per piece) and for EACH one tell us exactly what you did yourself. 6. Can you work fully white-label and sign an NDA and a non-circumvention agreement? 7. How much notice do you need before starting a shot, and how much capacity can you hold for a recurring partner? This is project-based, recurring work - no hours commitment on either side.
