A western infused with cyberpunk and magic!
Wildfire is a short film that takes place in a western setting with cyberpunk technology and magic powers that exist. My work toward the film was primarily in the form of character modeling and rigging as I modeled/rigged all the main characters of the film, including Aedon, Basillius, Katarina, and the mysterious Man in Black. I also animated a few scenes during the later part of production that made it into the final cut.
Characters
This is the main character rig I created for the film. It features controls for moving the characters' limbs, such as the arms, legs and spine, as well as more advanced controls for changing facial expressions, finger movement, and more.
These are the character models I created for the film. They all used the same rig that I had built initially for Aedon, but I designed that rig with flexibility in mind so other characters could be rigged to it as well which saved a good amount of time during the production pipeline.
Props
These are all of the props I created for the film. Most of them are firearms, as the heavy western theme the film has requires a lot of unique guns, but the few exceptions include a sword, a telescope, and a pile of rocks.
Animation
While I wasn't primarily an animator on the project, I did clean up a handful of animations and made one myself that made it into the final cut of the movie.
