I was brought on towards the end of post-production, so there was little time for design/animation versions. This provided good motivation to nail the designs the first time around and animate them in a smart, efficient way. The project was extremely fast-paced with a high amount of deliverables despite a small, but incredibly talented team. I worked in the penthouse suite alongside creative director Justin Blampied, vfx supervisor/lead flame artist Tim Davies and lead 3d artist Michael Shelton for about 2 months. It was an awesome experience to work on a feature film and see the other visual effects sequences come together right before the movie released.
