As Sharp As a Feather - PowerHouseFX
Live action CG Integration in collaboration with Power House FX
POWERHOUSE
For this project we got the chance to have mentors from Power House FX: Ed Mendez, co-founder and VFX supervisor, Nick Dauphinais, 2D supervisor and Monica Manalo-Hosenball, 3D supervisor to guide us through the quarter. Our team, SKREP included Elsie Halet, Payton Schade, Samuvel Sukumaran, Rebecca Lau and myself worked on creating a sci-fi live action short of a woman's metalic bird transformation. We had 10 weeks to come up with a concept, film our footage and refine everything in post. Here's our final edit:
My contribution of this project consisted of body tracking, rotoing, face feather lighting and scar compositing. It involved a lot of learning curve because some aspects required the use of methods I haven't worked with such as KeenTools. Here I want to provide breakdown for the shots I was responsible for.
