Assist in the promotion of music group Spiritbox by creating looping video asset within established branding guidelines for a music video, as well as a short promo clip in anticipation of music video release.
Contributions
  1. Prepared butterfly 3D file for animation by rigging model in Cinema 4D
  2. Provided low-res viewport render of motion for client approval
  3. Upscaled model geometry and textures to 4K
  4. Changed texture to pearlescent blue as per client instruction
  5. Rendered full resolution stills for client approval
  6. Rendered full quality sequences of different camera angles
Rigging / Motion
After rigging the 3D butterfly model, several layers of subtle motion were added to wings and antennae, ensuring the motion looped seamlessly every 40 seconds.

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts. Separated they live in Bookmarksgrove right at the coast of the Semantics, a large language ocean. A small river named Duden flows by their place and supplies it with the necessary regelialia. It is a paradisematic country, in which roasted parts of sentences fly into your mouth.

Texturing / Lighting / Rendering
Normal and bump maps were applied to the model to achieve a more interesting and realistic pearlescent butterfly wing texture.
Instagram Promo
To build interest for the full length music video, I created an Instagram promo clip by rendering out a short sequence from a different camera angle.
