Horoptr

GPU-accelerated plugins, built for artists who care how things actually behave.

Projects

Client work · Motion design and 3D

The plugins pay for the research; the client work is where the same obsession with light goes when someone else is art-directing. Mostly motion wallpaper systems — the animated backdrops that ship preinstalled on flagship phones, built to loop forever and run on a battery.

Selected work

Some of my strongest work is done in-house at a 3D studio and cannot be published. If you are evaluating me for client work, email [email protected] and I will walk you through it directly.

About

Horoptr — Dominik Bargiel

horopter /həˈrɒptə/ noun · optics

The set of points in space that fall on corresponding points in both retinas, and are therefore seen as single. Everything off it doubles, quietly, without you noticing.

Horoptr is a one-person studio building tools for film and post. The work starts from how something actually behaves — light through a lens, the way a fluid moves — and turns that into plugins fast enough to art-direct.

How the tools get made

Every tool begins as a physical question — what does a lens do to a highlight, how does a fluid carry what it is given — and is only worth shipping once it answers that fast enough to scrub a timeline against. Physics first, performance second.
