The 2D team led by Arundi Asregadoo added value to every sequence. Projecting photography onto animated wolfman faces and legs, they enhanced live action work. Transformation shots came together in compositing, where artists tracked in fine veins and skin changes, based on texture work generated by the fx department. Atmosphere was a constant issue in the film, with compositors blending in many photographic elements as well as simulated smoke and debris. And compositors worked closely with environment artists in a collaborative effort, using MPC’s techniques for multi-layered 2.5D environment rendering.
