VFX Breakdown "Feuerwehrmann" Mo Trip u. Ali AS

We did the visual effects for the new official music video "Feuerwehrmann" by MoTrip and Ali AS, two german rappers. Fire and smoke were realized by mixing houdini simulations with different footage from Action VFX. The simulated fire/smoke was rendered with redshift. Usually I use Arnold for rendering volumes, but I switched to redshift due to the one-week-deadline and time management reasons. This way we reached way shorter render times, but were also limtited in felxibility during the shading process. Comp was done in Nuke. Nevertheless I had a great time setting the world on fire and I'm looking forward to the next hot project! smiling_face
