Visual effects breakdown showcasing some of the post-production process and steps from original raw action-footage to the final result. Cloth simulations were done in Maxon Cinema4d using Insydium X-Particles and rendered on Otoy Octane Renderer. Particle simulations were generated and lit with JangaFX Embergen to speed up the workflow with it’s pathtracing render engine, while all elements were composited in Adobe After Effects in 4K resolution. Finally graded and edited in Davinci Resolve for the final cut.
