In this breakdown video, I go over the techniques and workflows of building one of the biggest shots for my Heroes of Bronze shortfilm.
From deconstructing the environment, to showing my character assets, arrow simulation, dust and compositing, I go over every single element that it consisted of. I also show my After Effects composition.
This is not a step-by-step tutorial, rather a breakdown format - but if you have any questions, or if you want me to break down a specific shot or technique in the future, definitely let me know in the comments! :-)
