I'm Sam Richards, I work in LA for a large visual effects company. I have been working for varirous CG companys for about 14 years. I have had both work and development experience in everything from particle systems, renderers to compositing systems, although often from a production bent (I.e. you do what is needed to get the job done, not a good recipe for clean code!).
Recently I have been mostly setting up (or supervising) production pipelines. The bulk of the code I have recently written has been in perl, but I have coded large applications in C and C++ too.
My favorite hobby is playing with my twin daughters (age 3), who currently want to have birthday partys every day, and be acrobats!
