Hydra Services Turbine Kickstart Animation (2022)
An industrial animation created for Hydra Services to showcase the functionality of their turbine KickStart tool. The piece blends technical accuracy with cinematic presentation to clearly communicate product purpose and operation.

My Role:
Working under the guidance of the Art Director, I contributed to multiple stages of production, including:

• Scene Blockout: Built the initial scene layout with proxy models, which were later replaced with high-poly assets.

• Camera Animation: Blocked out initial camera moves that were refined under Art Director feedback.

• Modeling: Created the client’s KickStart tool asset for accurate representation — stills shown below.

• Look Development: Applied materials and prepared assets for final rendering.

• Rendering & Compositing: Rendered sequences and composited the final footage to match the established art style.

Tools: 3ds Max, Redshift Renderer, After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop
