Luca Rood

Luca Rood is a 3D Software Developer, Technical VFX Artist, and Open Source nerd, with over 10 years of experience in 3D VFX and software development.

His software development has been largely related to Blender, primarily focusing on improving the physics engines. While working at the Blender Foundation and Tangent Animation, he contributed to such productions as Agent 327 and Next Gen.

But his Open Source contributions go beyond writing software, and also include expanding the Open Source landscape, with initiatives such as the General Asset License.

He now organises Nodevember, a yearly event on procedural creation, and is working on educational content with Creative Shrimp. He also hopes to kickstart some exciting new FOSS projects in the near future.
