Our London CGI artist Kristian Turner wanted to try new ways of illuminating headlights in CGI.
For this, he worked on a 3D car model of a vintage Ferrari 330 that we had previously used for a different project. Setting the focus on the front end detail, he completely remodelled the headlight and applied a tungsten light emitting material to the filament of the light bulb. To round it off, he used a colourful night time HDR sphere to light this shot and added some fogginess to the mix, giving it a beautiful dusky atmosphere.
