Aliens had come to the Earth and were trying to replace humans:they were following human behaviour and habitats,and even changing their faces to become the same as humans. Ultimately,humans had been replaced by the by the aliens.

Particle System - 2D & 3D

Background Replacement- Green Screen

Shatter

grounD crAck shAtter

The ground cracks were made through

3D software. And then imported to

the footage,set with the angle,color

and environment.

2D shAtter

The shape of the shatter was created.

Green Screen was used to replace the

background.

The time speed between the arm and

shatter was organized.

Texture was added to poly to replace

the bricks.

This project was an amazing opportunity

because I loved visual effects so much

when I was young. I loved adding different

effects to the film to make it fantastic.

I enjoyed setting up the explosion

sequence in the real world scene,

and making it appear realistic.

face-changing effect.

3D Design & Print

This Part including 3D stuff:

·3D Modelling and Animation.

·3D Production Rendering.

·3D Printing Technique.

I love 3D with the passion as visual effects,

especially in 3D modelling and rendering.

proDuction renDering

High quality texture was used in the

model. The glow effects made the images

more alluring.

I Used high quality detailed modelling when

building this model. Before creating objects,one

should be familar with the structure of the aim

object,or find a reference image to get a better

understanding.

gAme Design - 3D AnimAtion

The concept of this project is to make a playback

video for a car racing game. Through the background

creation,character design and animation,the video

was made more realistic.

chArActer AnimAtionThe Rig and Controler were added after the modeling,and then the action for the film requirements were designed.

Also,it is important to set up with the light to fit with the background.

3D printing

3D Modelling was mede in 3D softeware(Inventor), and through the 3D Printer to get the physical model.

An impressiVe eXperience

Project Name: Adrenaline HorrorDuration: 7minsProject Intro: This is a Group Project which consumed more than one month. The theme of the film revolves around chasing. Tony experienced to physical changes and becomes to a zoombie after he accidentally drinks a strange beverage. Then coming with the chasing scenes.

Angus has designed the sound effects in this film.

Many people said this was a good viual effect on the actor’s face. Interestingly,these material covering on the face was all cosmetic. We bought each of the cosmetic materials in a Halloween theme store.Only the eye rotation used are visual effect technique.

There is a car accident scene at the end of the film,the man escaped the chase; However he was hit by a car when close to surviving.This is the last scene for this film which finally finishes at 2:00a.m. Compositing with Color Key,3D Deformation and light system has been used in this scene.

Because it was a night shot,the light was not suitable for shooting.So we brightened the 3D space with the car lights.

Practice before the formal shooting

Character Deformation done on 3D Studio Max and then composited the with car hitting scene.

Thanks for your time,I really hope you enjoy the reading.
