Project Summary:

I worked remotely with the Blacksmith VFX team, plus freelancers across three continents, on this spot.  We did rig tests, character and creature animation tests, previs, and shot setups for this project.  In addition to the main 2 creatures, the plants, rocks, backpacks, and background elements were all animated.  The creatures were shot in live action with people dressed in bodysuitspua and we replaced the faces and arms with CG animated elements.


This spot won best CGI, Compositing, VFX, and Best of Show awards at the 2021 AICP Post Awards.
