Breakdown :

1) Time Freeze Demo
Modelled a human character & environment in Maya. Digital Photos applied as textures. Camera fly around.

2) Rotoscopy & Compositing
Foreground characters rotoscoped and positioned on Background plate. Colour corrected to match tone. Done in Shake.

3) Wire Removal
Wire erased by using pieces cut from adjacent frames. Pasted Elements colour-corrected for flickering light of source footage.

4) Curl Noise for Procedural Fluids
Project suggested by Andy Lomas (Framestore CFC). Nurbs Curve drawn to represent solid. Animated solid leaves behind turbulent wake when flows through particles. Done with Maya API.
