Character FX - The Gorge - Completed at Framestore for Apple TV

Beauty Render - Responsible for (Running Cloth Sim, Branch Body Sim, Beard Sim, Finalling) and Sim Setup updating to account for new model updates, resolve collision issues, improve sim time, and improvements to sim behavior to better match art direction.

Torn Jacket Cloth Sim, waist belt sim, and jacket threads (as groom). The cloth model had many missing parts which was a unique challenge to solve to get a stable simulation. Additionally, this cloth had to interact with multiple branches as a collider

Before simulating cloth, the body made up of multiple branches were simulated first, this was used as an input for the cloth jacket to sim on top of. The beard and head branches also were simulated separately.

After simulating both branches and cloth, it was important to not have any intersections between the two layers. Damp, constraints, and friction were used on the branch colliders and cloth jacket to keep the jacket stable and stay on model.

Beauty Render - Myself and Creature FX team at Framestore focused on having a believable cloth motion without making the cloth feel too static.
