Working Class – Scene 1 – Escher

Date : September 25, 2024

For the documentary The Miraculous Transformation of the Working Class into Foreigners – animations using Unreal Engine.

Recreation of the Bahnhofplatz of Zurich. Lots of research for how it looked 60 years ago. The whole shot is a combination of outsourcing (the buildings and metahuman clothes), 3d scans (for the statue), Metahumans, Quixel snow and particle effects. Definitely the most complicated scene of the movie, and we started with that, while using Unreal Engine for the first time. Was a lot of fun when we got enough VRAM 😉 .

Done as the 3D Art & project lead together with my team at Blindflug Studios, lots of the environment and clothes models done by NXA, motion capture with Quantum Stage, direction with Dschoint Ventschr.
