UNIVERSAL STUDIOS ORLANDO/ LA : AWESOME THRILLS :
CoMMERCIAL 3D ANIMATION
Worked as VFX Supervisor these amazing unique animation commercials done for Universal Studios Orlando and LA. This project was done in collab with Paintbox Labs & Pixeldust Studios. Art Direction was provided by Paintbox Labs. For this show we integrated CGI test dummy heads referred to as TIMs and composited on top of footage of actors dressed as crash test dummies, displaying digitally created expressions on the CGI as the TIMs enjoyed the new theme park rides. We fabricated this super detailed 3d test dummy helmet with many intricate facial expressions in Autodesk Maya. These helmets were then 3D printed and equipped with tracking markers and then worn by actors on-site. Then we replaced these 3D-printed practical helmets with CGI heads animated with expressions capturing the actor’s emotions and dialogue. Honored to feature this commercial during the Superbowl 2022 and Olympics 2022! CLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAILS.
