Soliloquy of the Stars is a cinematic created by students at the Florida Interactive Entertainment Academy, Orlando FL. This was a 5 month long project that I worked on as a Technical Art lead. The team used recorded mocap data of a dance to create a space themed cinematic using Unreal Engine. My key contributions were art directing the VFX and shaders of the scene, creating the materials and effects of the male character, and creating transition effects (turning characters into dust and materializing back). Additionally, I also worked on the lighting the characters and the environment, as well as making adjustments to the materials to make sure the environment looks visually pleasing, while keeping the main focus on the characters.
