May 5, 2025

Andreas Maaninka chats AI, ML and VFX.

Today on the befores & afters podcast, as part of our AI, ML and VFX series, we’re chatting to visual effects supervisor Andreas Maaninka of Oasis Visual Effects. Andreas is a seasoned visual effects artist, who has worked at studios including Framestore, Weta FX, Imageworks, DNEG and MPC. He’s also someone I’ve seen jump into the possibilities of ML and AI in VFX.

In this chat, we talk about what he has seen at the artist and supervisor level in terms of new tools and developments in machine learning and AI, and where he and artists he’s worked with have even used the tools. We talk about gen AI, scanning, lidar, gaussian splatting, the ethics of AI…yes, we cover a lot of ground.
