The Ultimate Explosions Workshop
The Ultimate Explosions Workshop

The Ultimate Explosions Workshop on DoubleJump is an outstanding course for anyone looking to level up their pyro skills in Houdini.

What I appreciated most was Ayush and Urban’s respect for the student’s time, their approach to complex scenes is broken down into clear, digestible videos, making learning both efficient and practical.

On top of that, the Discord community is full of amazing people who offer valuable feedback and troubleshooting help, making the learning process even smoother. I’d highly recommend this course to anyone looking to make their next explosion project truly kick-ass!

Film FX - Reverse Engineering

“I bought the Film FX Reverse Engineering masterclass, and I can confidently say it boosted my technical and overall skills as an FX artist very significantly.

Not only did it teach me production-level techniques, but it really switched the mindset I have when dissecting an FX and approaching any type of project.

What really sold this course for me, and what in my opinion makes this the best course for any FX artist, is the following: Corbin’s ability at teaching and making advanced concepts easy to understand.I immediately felt like I wasn’t following a tutorial, but rather learning a plethora of incredibly useful skills and tools I’ll be using in my career.

I also loved how he encouraged students to actually develop their own shot, rather than copying his step-by-step.

The community is awesome, and the Discord is filled with experienced and talented FX artists.I received a ton of feedback and help not only from the instructors themselves but also from a lot of members of the community, which helped push my work to the next level.”

“The course helped me to consolidate my experience in automotive cinematic. I already had a little experience through my job in video games but I needed to go a lot further to reach a sufficient level of quality to work in this industry.

I think the course is well structured and very complete. From optimising the 3D model to animation and lighting, it's really good. I really appreciated the little tips that Vasily gave me to learn the best practices in this industry.

Thanks to the course, I'm now able to offer a certain level of service quality for CGI or real-time automotive films. This has enabled me to attract several clients and I'm currently working on a project for one of them.

My experience with DoubleJump has been very positive. The platform is well designed and so is the course system. I had good discussions with Eva and Urban. Also, the discord is a real plus for exchanges between students and the instructor.”

"Urban is always pushing the possibilities of VFX, supported with a masterful grasp of cinematography and storytelling.

His enthusiasm for this is infectious – whenever we talk, I come away with new insight on a matter.

As a teacher, he not only has the eye and skills from his industry experience to create stunning work, but also has a passion for then breaking down and explaining the process in order to help share this knowledge."

"DoubleJump was extremely creative and easy to work with!

They were able to produce incredibly realistic simulations. And took our production to the next level!"

Aaron Sorensen

VFX Supervisor / Director at ZEBRACREATIVE

DoubleJump has been able to put out there from the start something that is very hard to come across: the ideal mix of technical insights shared with great communication skills and superb artistic results that speak for themselves.

How I wish this kind of content had been available much sooner!

Urban is the kind of sexy combination who not only has a jaw-dropping professional portfolio himself, but also knows how to be a funny and effective instructor. I really love collaborating with him and learning from such a gifted artist.

Urban can show you tricks that are hard to stumble upon without years of experience. He always remembers to explain the "why" behind the setup—and how it brings your shots closer to reality, bridging the last 10~20%. We geek out over reference footage all the time. He has a sharp eye for detail and a genuine passion for what he does.

Mai Ao

Senior Technical Lead of SideFX Labs at SideFX Software

I have worked with Urban in the Past on a workshop and with Corbin as FX supervisor during my time at ILP.

They are both extremely creative, passionate and always put helping the people around them up to the for front. I couldn't imagine a better team of people to put together a school like DoubleJump.

Always people and education first.
