I am so excited to finally share a project we worked on back in 2017 and 2018 called The David Movie Demo. This was a promotional piece to start the journey of building up to The David Feature Film. I was privileged to have gotten the opportunity to work on this beautiful piece. It was a great experience that expanded my skill set.
I came onto this project as a Lighting artist working with the Lighting Lead on crafting these shots from a technical and creative point of view. My Lead offered great guidance and input. We mostly worked in Lighting in Houdini and Rendering with Arnold. Thereafter it was our responsibility to translate that into a slapcomped version of the shot for Compositing. We had to grade a lot of the shots in Nuke and work together with the Comp department to nail the look. In some instances we even assisted Comp in getting the final version of the shot out. Here are a couple of examples of the shots that I lit and rendered for the project.
