Ice Age 2: The Meltdown: 3D Lighting

At Blue Sky Studios in New York, as a Lighting TA I was responsible for debugging and rendering several sequences for the feature film Ice Age 2 and the DVD short No Time For Nuts, which was nominated for an Oscar.

Among other duties, I lit and composited several shots from the film and short, including the one with Scrat below, attended Lighting and Paint rounds with lead artists and Directors to review shots, and rendered entire scenes and character turntables.

At Blue Sky, we used Maya, Shake, and Studio, their proprietary rendering tool.
