Responsibilities: Lighting & Compositing. This was a sub-key shot establishing the look of the entrance to Elsa's Ice palace.

Responsibilities: Lighting & Compositing. I had the opportunity to establish a unique look for Elsa's magic effect, Olaf's cloud, and the lighting effect on its surroundings. As a creative touch, I proposed making the burst of light on the ground shaped like Elsa's signature snowflake, and integrated the idea by animating a Nuke 3D projected texture.

Responsibilities: Lighting & Compositing. Combined my interior rig for the microbot cage with the exterior rig established by the supervisor. Dialed in for this angle, as the glass panels were not seen this close up in previous shots. As a creative touch, I added the "hot iron" glow along the path Gogo cuts through the cage, creating a Nuke 3D position matte for the edge.
Responsibilities: Lighting & Compositing. For this shot, I merged the rigs from two previously established shots (one for the car interior and one for the street exterior) and adjusted for this angle. Used this rig to light the same-as and similar shots in the sequence.
