HBO's From the Earth to the Moon
LEM coming out from the dark side of the moon
Episode 10 was done at Hollywood Digital.
We used Sidefx Prisms software for modeling and animation and RenderMan
to render. I worked on the RenderMan shaders for the moon and supervised
the project with Mark Lambert. We used a combination of modeling,
painted displacement maps and scans from Clementine to achieve the look of the
lunar surface. Christopher Yang did the LEM exhaust animation and
Jongwoo Heo did most of the LEM fly-bys.
Smoke's cannon fizzels out from Mortal Kombat II
I worked on some of the effects for
Mortal Kombat II - Annihilation
at Todd-AO Digital Images. Mostly the ice Sub-Zero throws to
freeze over Smoke and the frost which covers Smoke and disables
Smoke's chest cannon. As well as the cannon itself and its
flame animation.
