Brief
Create a physically accurate CG animation that communicates key messages and presents the sprayer in the strongest light—delivered in a structure that the edit house can easily re-cut across formats.

What I did

  • CAD to animation: inspected, cleaned, and optimised the engineering model (naming, hierarchy, normals, triangulation/decimation where needed) for stable animation in Cinema 4D.

  • Look-dev for realism: built precise materials (metals, polymers, seals), consistent real-world scale/units, and controlled lighting to read form and function.

  • Narrative & messaging: storyboarded beats around core USPs (single-use pump, reliability, efficiency), balancing clarity with a premium aesthetic.

  • Render strategy: Octane look-dev and rendering with AOVs/passes for flexible grade/compositing.

Key responsibilities

  • CAD clean-up & topology optimisation (ZBrush/C4D tools).

  • Rigging/animation for functional parts and exploded/section views.

  • Texturing, lighting, and camera design for readable detail.

  • Pass management (beauty + utility AOVs) and colour-managed delivery.

Technical highlights

  • Cinema 4D: scene assembly, rig/animate, cameras.

  • Octane: photoreal materials, HDRI/studio lighting, AOVs.

  • ZBrush/C4D: decimation, retopo, UV touch-ups where helpful.

Outcome
A crisp, physically credible product film that translates complex engineering into an easy-to-grasp story.
