  • Salah was a senior CFX TD at Axis. While he did not report directly to me on a day-to-day basis, his leads and supervisors have showered accolades on his technical solutions and speedy performances. He worked on projects that varied in style and scope. He exceled in providing creative solutions on complex one-off hyperreal cinematic shots. He was also fast and efficient working with multiple shots and characters in a large-scale episodic show with stylized characters. For shows large and small, hair or cloth, hyperreal or highly stylized, Salah will deliver high-quality work fast and with a minimal supervision needed.

  • Salah has been a fantastic addition to the CFX team at Passion, working on several of our advertising projects. We tasked Salah with FX, cloth and groom tasks, including a complex bird character in which he excelled. Salah's work is very fast; he produces good quality work managing to overcome problems given to him very efficiently. We asked him to use Houdini 20 feathers with a very short setup time, and we have been very pleased with the results. Great fit for the fast-paced project!

  • Having worked with Salah on three projects now, I can confidently say he would be an asset to any Houdini team. Salah's transition from FX to CFX was a breeze and made working with him a blast. I wish him the best and look forward to working together again in the future!
