Monster (2007)

VFX short film

 Last updated: 30 December 2021

Directed by Tim Günther

My role: Modeling
Software used: Maya, Houdini

I created a model of a S.W.A.T. truck to be used as a background vehicle in the short, and I got a little carried away with the level of detail.

Actually I started creating the model in Houdini, even though everybody kept telling me that using Houdini for modeling wasn't such a good idea. After about a week of very little progress in Houdini, I switched to Maya and "completed" the model there.
