I had the opportunity to learn how to render realistic fluids from scratch, namely fire, for my digital video compositing class midterms. We were asked to integrate this render with a footage of hand gestures of our own choosing, to practice tracking. Hence, my concept is a mage creating a mini fireball on her finger then toying with it.
Through this small project, I fostered my skills in colour correcting, rendering maya fluids and editing sparks and lighting in post.
Fireball created in Autodesk Maya and video composited using Adobe After Effects.
