This shot was a real mix of techniques. A 2D hand releases a 3D flower into a hand-painted stream. We then transition to a hand-drawn version of the same stream with a BG wipe, then hand off to a 3D starfield, wipe with a 2D FX transition into a 3D flower floating on a 2D stream... on a painted background. EASY PEASY. Client: Riot Games Background Layout: César Chevalier, Thomas Reteuna Background: Igor Piwowarczyk, Daniel Clarke Character Layout: Kathryn Layno Animation: Mourad Sedikki FX Anima

This shot was composed from a sequence of very flat cuts that in succession, create the illusion of continuous movement with dynamic beats 🤌 There was a thought that the blue flame energy in this shot might be read as water, so the effects animator Matthieu Petit paid careful attention to make sure the movement of the effects was clearly fire despite being blue. They did an amazing job and we’re super happy with how it turned out! Client: GUILDFI BG Layout: Daniel Converio, Simon Masse Backgrou
