Mekemeke: A virtual production short film

I had the opportunity to participate in a Virtual Production training program at SIRT (Screen Innovation Research and Training).

Working alongside my project partner, Baran Arslan, we created a 2½-minute short film that brings together motion capture, VFX using Unreal Engine’s Niagara system, 3D environments, and in-camera VFX for virtual production.

The project includes:
• 6 fully developed 3D environments
• 2 actors
• 32 character animations
• Motion capture
• Virtual production and in-camera VFX
• Audio and sound design
• Lighting and VFX

We are extremely happy with the final result and excited to finally share our work with the world!

A huge thank you to James Rowan, our instructor, and to Kevin and Emerson, our TAs, for their guidance and support throughout the program.

And finally, a special thank you to TD Bank for making this Micro-credential Virtual Production Catalyst program possible and giving us the opportunity to develop our skills through hands-on production.

We’re proud of what we created and excited to show you what we’ve been working on!
