This long-overdue post is a visual effects breakdown for some of my favorite shots in my VES 153AR: Intermediate Animation final project and first complete short animation, Toward the Light. To follow along, you can find the film here. I’ll be referencing times based on the YouTube link to discuss the animation.

I recently tried out the Volume Effector in Cinema 4D. The tool allows for a discrete version of the boole operation, allowing for a pretty cool modular effect.

I came across an interesting issue while trying to displace the surface of an otherwise static object. When using the Boolean tool to intersect two objects with an animated displacement deformer, the point of intersection occasionally fails to render on certain frames.
