Marvel Strike Force - Team Up (2018)
Animation & Virtual Production
At the start of this project, I was brought on to first provide the directors with a tech viz scene from Motion Builder, which included the set, anim blocking, and rough camera positions. This was utilized on set at Technicolor's mocap stage, where it allowed the directors to see in real-time where the actors were in relation to the CG set and the rough blocking I provided. Additionally, I provided support to the stage production and management, ensuring that the capture of data went smoothly.
Following the shoot, rather than hopping straight into Maya, we chose to do our previs in Motion Builder. This allowed us to quickly play with mocap selects until we had something we liked before moving into Maya for finaling.
