This repository is a Houdini Pipeline Toolkit named "EVE", currently at the early stages of developing. The goal is to create out of the box VFX pipeline for Houdini and Nuke applications under control of Shotgun project management system for a single artist or animation studio. It is full CG oriented pipeline which can handle small tasks with just a few shots as well as huge projects like animation feature or TV series.

The pipeline would be heavily rely on Animation DNA structure and ideas.
