Andrew Whatling | Houdini TD

Anomaly - VFX Short Film


Anomaly was my end-of-second-year film, created at the University of Hertfordshire. On the project, I was responsible for developing and maintaining our CG pipeline, producing the lighting for all CG shots, and overseeing the rendering process.

As a Pipeline TD, my aim was to enable my team to work in a familiar and comfortable and familiar DCC environment while maintaining a consistent workflow across every department.

As a Lighting TD, my focus was on building a sense of suspense, revealing just enough to draw the viewer's attention without breaking the mystery before the creature's final reveal.
