The Future is Hybrid
Experiment 2: “Physically” pull back a tiny zombie in my hand like a wind-up toy, then release it to run across a real surface.
Workflow:
Simulon - Start/end states shoot the running sequence (real-time, in-camera).
NanoBanana - create the “in-hand” interaction frame.
KlingAI - generate the hand interaction (holding the zombie, pulling back, placing it down).
DaVinci Resolve - smooth the transition (camera shake/retime/color).
Full breakdown on Substack.

The Future is Hybrid
Experiment 1: “Physically” picking up a virtual 3D figure and placing it in a new location.
Traditional VFX: very difficult.
GenAI-only: no intention, no control.
Hybrid: used @Simulon to lock placement/scale/lighting start/end frames, then use @GoogleDeepMind Veo to generate the interaction between them.
Full breakdown decision trail on Substack.

There’s a metric ton of GenAI media right now being made fast and shipped faster. Stuff that consumes attention without earning it. At the same time, the possibilities of the technology are too exciting to ignore.
So I’m starting a Substack series: The Future Is Hybrid.
substack.com/@diveshnaidoo/n…
I’ll be sharing workflow experiments mixing VFX, GenAI, and other tools with a focus on intentional and controllable results (not slot-machine outputs).
Post 1 is live and it lays out my approach and thinking. Experiment 1 will go live shortly.

Check out this detailed breakdown of this Crocodile walk cycle which was rendered/composited in real world footage using @Simulon
I have tried to include all the steps from Rigging to final render in the app itself

more @Simulon love; the blender scenes you get from the cloud processing *are the literal scenes used for these high end auto-renders you see form the tool*.
This means you get a full comp setup, incl. denoising, motion blur etc - to tweak as you will.
This tool's insane.

Life is wild. A month ago we launched @Simulon to the world and today I’m discussing VFX AI workflows with the Prime Minister of India.
You really can just do things.

Had a fruitful interaction with Indian origin tech entrepreneurs in Johannesburg. They talked about the work they are doing in sectors such as FinTech, social media platforms, agriculture, education, healthcare, medical devices and more. Called upon them to deepen their engagement with India and work closely with our people.

Simulon has just opened up to the public!
The app allows you to shoot, track, HDRI light, and render in your iPhone using its LiDAR 🤯 So you can take 3D models, composite them into your scene, and it lights everything really nicely using the environment you're shooting in.

I think we just built the most insane 3D VFX workflow.
Precision reality editing with @Simulon Blender.
• Scan the real world in seconds
• Edit in Blender
• Sync reopen in Simulon
• View & shoot in real-time AR
• Photoreal cloud render in minutes
Will share a BTS of this clip shortly.

Lighting is key to creating believable VFX. @Simulon generates accurate 360 hdr lighting in seconds.
But there’s something much stranger going on in this video. The chrome ball is being moved through the world as if it is actually there.
How do you think this is possible? 👀
We’ve built something that will completely change how 3D visual effects are made and it’s coming to Simulon next week.

We’re kicking off the new week w/ a special Spaces today at 7 PM ET (4 PM PT), so more of you can tune in with us.
We have @diveshnaidoo joining us to talk about the recent launch of @Simulon - the 3D VFX platform redefining creation.
Tune in: x.com/i/spaces/1OyKAjOMkwrGb

So cool seeing Simulon featured on CGWorld Japan 🙏
We’ve always been huge fans of Japanese creators.
This is a fan-made render I created of @kowyokoyama’s Ma.K. mecha - shot when the JMSDF visited Cape Town. The crew lost their minds when I showed them.
Shooting VFX on location and getting a photo-real render back in minutes really does feel like magic.

Artists will always test the limits of every feature. Here’s another example of an insane rigid body sim shot on location with @Simulon.
@voidzto with the infinite grocery glitch 🤯

Btw, you can import 3D rigid body simulations and film them on location with @Simulon.
Here’s a really cool example of this by artist vacades. Full breakdown on IG.

Been seeing a lot of people posting their @Simulon tests (like @smearballz) and the results are pretty insane. Check out how in this metal ball example the reflections look pretty dang accurate!

Best uber driver ever! Bunch of shots using the @Simulon AR app. All automated - shot / tracked on iphone and cloud rendered without any compositing. Super easy and massive time saver. Did dozens of finished rendered shots in an afternoon.

@Simulon does a better job of camera tracking and lighting scenes than I have ever done. All I had to do was animate a spinning lawnmower and Simulon 3D tracked the scene, matched the lighting, and rendered it with accurate motion blur in about 10min!

Test footage of the bigger T-Rex I filmed during our visit to Golden Gate Park, SF.
Tried to capture a bit of that classic Jurassic Park terror.
Made with Simulon and added the atmospheric fog in with our Blender plugin.
🔊 Sound on.
Simulon is here.
Studio-quality VFX, end-to-end, in one app for every skill level.
Watch Rexy go from 3D to reality in his first short film “Rexy to the Rescue!”
Made with Simulon on iPhone.
Available now on the iOS App Store.
