Candles

Candle Animation

Client: Personal Project
Objective: Simulate a low light candle scenario with the candles being magically blown out
Software: 3ds Max, Phoenix, V-Ray, After Effects

Process: Pretty simple setup of a den environment assembled from a library of items. The scene was lit with the candles and a tv where we only see the light illumination from the tv since the tv is hidden from our direct view. A faint fill light or two are there, as well. Phoenix was used to simulate the fire and smoke for the candles. Rendered with 3ds Max and V-Ray. Comped in After Effects.
