Hi, guys!
I just want to show off my latest visual effects demo reel, which features work I created as a freelance VFX artist and animator for The Asylum during 2013 to 2014. If you don't already know, The Asylum is a movie studio best known for their
Sharknado films and the SyFy TV zombie-fest
Z-Nation.
In 18 intense months, I worked on 18 films and created approximately 280 effects shots. I found working at The Asylum to be one of the most challenging gigs ever, but they have a fantastic team of artists, and I had a lot of fun working with them.
To keep this post on-topic, yes,
iPi Mocap Studio was definitely used in some of my Asylum work. Most notably, there are my three 'Kolossus' shots featured in the reel (that's the giant
Attack-On-Titan-esque robot), and a bunch of digital stunt double work scattered throughout various other movies. These performances were recorded in my living room using dual and triple Kinect For Windows sensors.
In a few weeks, I'm going to post a special article on my website that breaks down and explains how many of these shots were created, including my infamous 'shark splitter' scene, and of course a few scenes where I used iPi Mocap Studio.
In the meantime, please enjoy my reel!
