Utkarsh Tripathi

I work in visual effects, and I build free tools for VFX and animation studios - chat, pipeline, AI roto and tracking, made by someone who uses them every day. And Gleo, a music player for my own lossless library.

About me

I'm a VFX artist based in Mumbai, working on compositing, roto and tracking.

Studios run on a lot of small, repetitive work - renaming plates, chasing files, asking who has the latest version. I build tools that take that work away, so artists can spend their time on shots.

Everything I make is free for studios to use.

What I work with

  • CompositingNuke, roto, paint, tracking
  • 3DBlender, camera solves
  • ToolsPython, PySide6 / Qt, SQLite
  • AIPyTorch - SAM, CoTracker, Depth Anything
  • StudioPipelines, networks, Windows roll-outs

Free for studios. My tools use the UT Community Licence: use them and change them for your studio, but don't sell them, and send your improvements back.
