Lighting and effects on Cosmos Laundromat (2015, short film)
I joined the Blender Animation Studio in January 2014 and immediately started working on Cosmos Laundromat: First cycle. I got the chance to work on the full body texturing of Victor, environment grass and lighting. Towards the end of the project I mainly worked on the simulation of the tornado and other physics based effects.
