Developed 30+ storyboard frames, animatics, shot lists, and camera breakdowns across a 40-shot sequence organized by chapter. Designed 7 original characters combining cultural iconography with WWII military history; created all concept art, silhouette explorations, and colour palettes. Executed complete 3D pipeline in Maya and ZBrush: modelling, retopology, UV unwrapping, rigging, MASH-based mechanical rigging, and character animation. Hand-painted PS1-style textures entirely in Photoshop — gradient maps, alpha masks, colour overlays — with zero procedural materials. Secured official music licensing from Sabaton for use in the final film.
