Submerge: Beyond The Render

For an exhibition at Artechouse in New York, I collaborated with directors William Selviz of Rendrd Media, and Manuel Sainsily of Protopica to create a visually striking film, showcased alongside the work of 15 renowned 3D artists from around the world.

Starting from a narrative foundation, we quickly moved into environment design. Using Houdini, we created procedural assets, animated them with soft-body and particle simulations, and generated procedural textures for the glyphs carved into the rocks.

The final film was rendered using Octane on The Render Network at 18K Resolution, and composited by Terry Williams.
