Jaguar - Snow Tracks


Client: Jaguar

Agency: Y&R

Post: Liquid Light/Version 2

CGI: AFCG, Inc.


AFCG was brought in by Liquid Light/Version 2 to create CG tire tracks being left in the snow by the new Jaguar X type. The artists at Version 2 first did a beautiful job adding snow to the original film footage of a clean mountain road. This footage was then forwarded to AFCG where it was tracked using RasTrack. Snow tracks and snow spray were then modeled, animated, rendered and composited using Houdini.

Special thanks to Frank, Amber, and Lin at Version 2.
