F1 - CONCEPT FRAMES
A series of styleframes and animated sequences for a fictional short film set around the Mercedes Formula 1 team during race preparation. The concept follows the tension and precision of the pre-race ritual, moving through garage assembly, close-up mechanical details, steering wheel UI and the ride out to the grid.
The project gave me the chance to work across the full pipeline on my own terms. Texturing, animation, UI design, lighting, simulation and compositing all came together into a cohesive piece, with Houdini adding physical detail to the environments alongside the core Cinema 4D and Redshift workflow.
A personal project built to push deeper into cinematic automotive CG and bring Houdini into my toolset outside of client briefs.
