About Leonardo
I’m a Senior Technical Director and pipeline developer with more than 20 years of experience in the visual effects and animation industry.
Throughout my career I’ve worked in Italy, France, Belgium, and the UK, contributing to VFX, animation, and production pipeline development across multiple studios and projects.
Over the years I’ve developed numerous production tools and workflow systems for Maya, Houdini, Blender, and mixed studio environments including automation tools, procedural workflows, asset management systems, and artist-focused pipeline solutions.
Some of the tools and systems I developed are still actively used in production environments today.
My experience combines software development, technical problem solving, and real-world production workflows, allowing me to teach Python from a practical industry perspective rather than a purely academic one.

This course focuses on practical Python development for VFX, animation, and 3D production pipelines.
Rather than teaching Python only as a generic programming language, lessons are designed around real production workflows used in professional studios and technical art environments.
Students learn how Python is actually used inside tools such as:
- Maya
- Houdini
- Blender
- USD pipelines
- Production workflow systems
Topics may include:
- Python fundamentals
- Scripting for artists
- Maya Python API
- PySide / Qt interfaces
- Houdini Python workflows
- Blender scripting
- Pipeline automation
- Tool development
- Batch processing
- Asset management
- Publishing systems
- Procedural workflows
- File system automation
- Production debugging
- APIs and integrations
- Python for Technical Directors
Lessons are adapted to the student’s experience level and goals.
This course is suitable for:
- Technical artists
- Junior TDs
- 3D artists wanting to learn scripting
- Pipeline developers
- VFX students
- Professionals transitioning into technical roles
My teaching method focuses on simplifying complex technical concepts into smaller, understandable building blocks that can immediately be applied to real-world production scenarios.
The goal is not only to learn Python syntax, but to develop the mindset and problem-solving approach used by professional Technical Directors and pipeline developers.
