404 Alex Not Found - DreamWorks' Dragons: The Nine Realms

I loved working on the crystal reflections- getting to create distortion and really be allowed to play with the final look of a shot is always my favorite. I didn't want anything to be too clean, but the need to keep things somewhat 'normal' was paramount. The crystals are reflective, but they're also not perfect mirrors. Using the alpha channels, some creative keying, and some distortion, I was able to create a version that pleased our show runner.

The shot with the paint over element was tricky- we were not getting what we needed from out vendors, so I had to do a lot of creative stitching, animating of shadows and paint over elements, and match moving to some degree.
