So after testing a few different settings and combining them, we locked on a Victorian setting with a hunter and its monstrous prey. This is the most critical part as these little sketches made in a few minutes will determine the whole film produced over the course of a couple of months. The first step was to quickly explore a few different options directly with storyboards, as it’s a simple way to define nearly all aspects of a film at once, the narration, setting, characters, action, lighting, mood, etc. So here I will break down how I approached the Nightmare Hunter short film production. With Reallusion’s special help on the beta programs of iClone 8 and Character Creator 4, I could overcome these challenges and speed things up, thanks to the multitude of features these programs offer. Luckily enough, I have learned how to use iClone and Character Creator through the lip-sync animation contest.

When Dream Harvest asked me to produce a cinematic teaser in March 2022 for the visual development of a new project, I knew there would be many different technical challenges to tackle on my own, mostly under a tight two-month schedule.
