Dynamo - Magician Impossible, Ad
A promotional commercial for Discovery Channel launching UK magician Dynamo's flagship series, Magician Impossible. The spot required keying the talent from a bluescreen capture and placing him in an environment, with dynamic rigid-body card simulations falling from the sky and interacting with it in every shot. The simulation was modelled on stadium ticker-tape physics, with the tumbling tuned to the creative direction. My work spanned particle and rigid-body card simulation, camera tracking, lighting and rendering, within a lean team of CG generalists, a matte painter and a Flame compositor.
