SHANG-CHI - LUMA STUDIOS PROJECT

This was a bit of a generalist project for me. On this project I had the privledge to work on multiple aspects of the bus sequence. From previs, to rigging the key look of the brute blade and animating it. To rigging the bus mechanism that breaks apart, to previsualizing several shots and doing key animation before passing some along to be finalized by other artists while I jumped back in to other tasks. There were shots that required projection set ups to be sent out to the compers and lighters, controls that needed set ups and scripts for the bus accordion mechanism, which were also animated by myself and others. In other shots I animated parts of the bus flying off, cars driving by and the bus cables and split version of the bus (animation and cloth sim on cables). What a ride!
