Ленинград - Не Париж!
VFX breakdown
We had 12 shots to provide by 7th of March right before the official release day on international womans day 8th of March. This condition was super important for our client. We had about 1-2 weeks for Rnd and preproduction before the shooting started and 4 weeks to finish before the deadline. So we did our best to deliver everything right in time and with cinematographic quality the same as the rest filmed action part of this video.
Enjoy the full length video:
Concepts
We`ve started research with a concepts guided by directors storyboard. All this artworks were created before the shooting. Further all the space shots where removed before we dive to deep in it.
Meteorit RnD, Assets and lookdev
We`ve barely found any references of the burning falling meteorite. It felt that nobody has done such a close up shot with this thing. So we had to balance between the nature of burning very bright object and keeping anything visible around it at the same time. We did a lot of test searching for optimal balance playing with simulations and different render passes.
Shots
At some point we ended with fullCG cloud scape instead of doing it with mattepaint as we planned at the very beginning.
More and more AOVs for lookdev at comp!
Finally as a bonus enjoy
