From march to august 2012 I worked in Amsterdam as a VFX artist on a short film called Tears of Steel. This was the forth open movie project made by the Blender Institute
I did the model, texturing and shading of the Quadbot. Additional modeling by Ian Hubert (lots of details in the face region + lamp) and Jeremy Davidson (he did a part of the back leg)
On this project I had the privilege to work together with the amazing core developers of Blender. So if something went wrong, or if we felt like we needed a new feature in Blender, they could fix it right there on the spot. Best tech support ever 🙂
In addition to that I got to work with great artists from all around the world. We had people from Russia, Australia, USA, Italy, Germany and me (from Norway).
