The next Tech & Tonic for game dev event, scheduled for Wednesday, April 8, 2026 at the Speakers' Corner at OGR Torino, will focus on the world of graphics development and animation technologies in video games, with an emphasis on systems that enhance motion quality and optimize production workflows.

The featured speaker will be Riccardo Lasagno, Principal Graphics Developer at Sumo Digital. With solid experience in developing advanced tools and technical solutions, Lasagno will present an innovative approach to overcoming the costly tuning cycles of animation state machines, which are often hindered by transition filters that degrade their quality. During his talk, he will introduce an adjustable adaptive filter based on animation data, designed to eliminate tuning cycles while maintaining high replay quality: the Half Pound Filter.
