Zugausfall

VFX Shot | 2021

In our 6 weeks VFX course at the Lucerne school of art & design I created this VFX shot of a train crash.
I filmed the background, procedually modeled the bridge and simulated the crash. A combination of multiple simulations led me to the final result. I created a rigid body simulation (Bullet) to simulate the bridge and the train including deforming metal pieces. Additionally, debris, dust and steam simulations were added on top. All 3D done in Houdini, rendered with Arnold and composited in Nuke.
