Responsible for Character Look Development and Groom
Houdini, Substance Painter, Autodesk Maya, Renderman
In collaboration with Andersen Wood, LB Rabb, Hayden Hanna, Andrew Olds, Liz Marrs, Gail Michaelson
Prototype is an animated short about a little mouse with high-flying dreams, living in a DaVinci Style workshop. As Look Development Lead, I led the team in the surfacing process, providing guidance and feedback on environmental surfacing and being responsible for mouse’s look. For this project, I taught myself Houdini’s grooming tools, using a node network setup to paint in particular styles of fur in different areas on the mouse. Then, I surfaced the skin, eyes, and accessories on the mouse, and rendered the character in Renderman.
