In this assignment I used the VFX software Houdini to create a portal that a Monster would enter through. I also animated the monster rig, as well as fully rendering it.
For my internship I helped my Supervisor advertise the VFX department at Lesley by 3D Modeling the Lesley Logo and then using Houdini to dissolve it into smoke before it re-appears. This graphic was later shown by the President at the University and I was given special thanks for contributing to the presentation.
This Volcano was crafted in Maya for my Junior Thesis film. This film was a group endeavor that combined 2D and 3D elements, with the co-creators of the film compositing the 2D elements later seen in the final piece.
