I'm Siddhesh Sawant and I'm a multi-disciplined FX Artist Specializing in simulation and procedural workflows. Houdini and Python are my mechanism of preferential when creating visual effects ranging from flips to pyro and destruction to magic. I’m always trying to learn new skills and emphasize my creative proficiency.
I’ve been working as a Mumbai-based FX Artist since 2019, honing my craft and experimenting with different artistic styles and techniques. I knew I wanted to pursue an artistic career from an early age, and have been working hard everyday to achieve my creative aspirations. Browse my site to learn more about me and my Visual effects projects.
Studio Work
Growing up, I would love to dream up characters and scenes, then bring them into life as animations. Through a lot of hard work and perseverance, I’ve succeeded in turning my passion into a career as a professional FX Artist. Take a look at some of my featured Animation and Live-Action projects below, and contact me if you’d like to learn more about my work.
