Nichevo, a particular creature.
At the conference, we will show how we approached and optimized an FX project such as Shadow and Bones, from Netflix, in its second season. We will focus on NichevoYa, a creature made entirely of particles that can solidify according to artistic needs.
Through a shot of the series, we will show the different processes and difficulties that the FX department had to face in the creation of the creature, from the preparation to the final result.
