Studio Project
Working with a team of ten students from both the VFX and animation departments, this collaborative short was filmed on location in London, with animation and VFX all completed at Escape Studios.

Live Action and Animation
The live action plates for Reach were scanned and tracked, and were completed with digital animation in Maya, composited and rendered in Arnold.
