Kong on the bridge

So Kong was a bit angry that day..

A VFX-shot where an animated 3d-model was comped into camera tracked footage shot with a drone and an iPhone. The target look was raw shaky handheld found-footage / news helicopter without music or sound effects.

The model was purchased and came pre-rigged. Character animation was achieved using Move AI motion tracking from a single camera angle, and the Simple Retarget Blender plugin.

7 different camera angles was camera tracked in Blender.

Simple geometrical copies of the bridge & cables were modelled in Blender and used for the obscuring of the character behind objects and for it to cast shadows on the bridge.

Camera shake, zooms, faked autofocus-struggling & video glitches was created with After Effects.

Comping done in Nuke, editing in Premiere.
