On this project, I was responsible for creating the grass shot and all the boat wake effects in the final shots.
The whole concept was about taking something wild and chaotic and transforming it into something clean and organized. The grass starts out looking completely wild and untamed, then gradually shifts into these perfect, organized waves.
This was such a fun project because it was the perfect blend of art and math. The grass uses two separate simulations – one that moves chaotically in all directions, and another that uses sine waves to create that smooth, wave-like motion. To transition between these two animations, I built a custom tool that controls the animation procedurally.
