generate a “fire pass” applied in compositing - Implemented 2D light metering techniques to simulate fire

flicker per each light rendered – metered from the FX element render of the fire

0:22 - 0:29 - The A-Team (2010) [Proprietary lighting, comping and rendering software]

- Environment layout and lighting of clouds using Houdini - Adjusted shader parameters (advection, density, forward/

renders using VMantra: tool includes ability to generate and adjust light rig setup, balance lighting and render all

necessary passes for comp. including holdouts and shadow passes

- Generated animated panoramic renders of cloud environment for character lighting
