An adventurous fantasy musical set to the melodies of Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky? In the biggest Czech film post-production studio, I participated in the creation of a digital fantasy world and its heroes together with a number of skilled creators.
In 2007 I was approached to expand the creative film team. This began an almost two-year collaboration with UPP studio. The actual realization of the post-production of the VFX film was a great school and experience for me. I met many top professionals/experts and excellent artists here. Some periods of (post)production were periods of borderline stress, other times a nice creative relaxation.
Nutckracker
Initially, I was working on 3D urban type set extensions (3Dmodelling of architecture). Then I specialized as a texture artist and 3D matte painter. The project itself with its fantasy environments, imaginative and fantastic characters was a real fun at times. The (post)production work on The Nutcracker took about a year. During this time, a well-established team of people was formed and a large part of us stayed on to work with UPP on other film projects.
Characters texturing
As the project progressed, I became the main 3D texture artist, training other colleagues in the then modern Cinema 4D BodyPaint 3D system and painting. So I realized digital 3D painting on architecture, steampunk machines. Textured doublers of actors. Brought to life the surfaces of fantastical characters and other creatures.
