About
Our first internal R&D short film project. We pushed our creative and technical team to the limits. Creature designs from concept artist Brent Hollowell .
Creatures Look Development and Rigging Test
Rigging
All the creatures are set up with custom skeletal rig to achieve accurate deformation. Custom muscle system create more dynamic motion for the creatures.
Texture
To achieve a high level of details for the creatures , we adopted UDIM workflow 8K textures.
Project Samsui is an in house short film project to showcase the art and technical know how of Voodoo Visual. Project Samsui is developed based solely on three creature concept art sketches by Brent Hollowell.
From the concept art, we developed ideas for an animated short based on the creatures. We drafted out storyboards for the scenes, sculpted and modeled the creatures in Zbrush, and finally developed it into a full CGI animated teaser short film.
