Modeling characters and assets for feature animations.I also collaborated with other departments to create new tools to integrate modeling better with the other departments and automating redundant modeling tasks. I also developed the new generic topology to be used in all the human characters in the upcoming feature Big Hero 6. There I combined the standard radial face topology layout with the grid layout used by Pixar to provide enhanced deformability for facial expressions.CreditsWreck it Ralph (2012)Modeled several of the characters. Notably the “Zombie” character, the “Neff” character from Altered Beasts (the pink Rhyno also featured in the posters distributed worldwide), two of the Space Marines (Heads only, armor had been adapted across characters), a few of the realistic humans that inhabited the arcade and all the candy-made variants of the Cybugs towards the end of the movie. I sculpted facial expressions for the Zombie character that had a vast expression range that couldn’t be covered by rig alone. I also helped as support staff for matte painting and in creating other assets.Frozen (2013)Modeled Characters and Assets. I began making the Hans’s sleigh and then moved to characters, I created several secondary and tertiary characters and notably the big Ice Monster nicknamed “Marshmallow” that is also featured in the cameo at the end of the movie.Big Hero 6 (2014)Modeled and collaborated in the visual development of two of the six hero characters in the movie. Baymax in it's armored variant and Wasabi.Besides these I also created when in its deflated form and several props and items.As mentioned above I created the generic topology that had been used for all the characters, from crowds to hero characters. Created facial expressions for Wasabi. Modeled also many other secondary characters, variants and props most notably the small trolley box where the Baymax's inflatable version resides.
