I have the honor to announce that Flavio Rodriguez has now a blog, too !
Those that are active in the Virtools online community already know him from his famous Multi-Resolution/DetailTexture Shader, his Heat Distortion Shader, and his DoF Shader.
Maybe you also know about the WW2D prototype he did with Frederic Markus from eRelevant using Virtools.
You can read more about him (including his resume) on this site. Don't forget to subscribe to his Blog RSS feed (bottom of the page), because he already told me the topics of his next articles and it sounds very interesting !
I have the pleasure of working with Flavio for several years! This guy is AWESOME. He thinks out of the box. The demos from his blog are impressive! I hope he gets a position at some game company soon. Actually I hope he gets a position at MS Game Studios.
Flavio is a great guy who loves games and game development. It is always good to see this guy being sucessful.
Good to hear Flavio has a blog. He really thinks out of the box, like one said above, and now he can share all his explosion of creativity with everyone. I miss the time we did our projects in a regular basis and all the knowledge I acquired. Looking forward to finish our dynamic music engine in Virtools.
I had the distinct pleasure of working with both Flavio and Farah and I must say Flavio always impressed me. The guy could cook up a 6-legged thing and have it walking on the screen in a couple minutes. And, OK. I would be happy if he got a position at MS Game Studios, even if I wouldn't be able to play his works – I don't have a Windows box. But I am thinking about buying a PS3.
Well, I worked only a few months with Flavio, but I can say that He is the one of the person that you never forgot. Very friendly, works with heart, and always is ready to help! I learn a lot of things whit him and I can say that I'm proud of him! I have totaly sure that one day, I'll play a amazing game that I'll say: It was developed by my friend, Flavio.. Hehehe
