PEPSI MERMAID - VFX BREAKDOWN

This project was really cool, I did animation of the mermaid tail and all 3d tracking the scenes. Undoubtedly the scene under the water was the most complicated because there was no tracking point in the pool, I had to do the animation on top of the camera, imagining her displacement in Z to match your position and perspective on the screen. It was very complicated but it worked.
The model was created by Marcelo Pasqua
Compositing was made by Mosh Post team

Las colas de estas sirenas se ven más realistas, que las del pésimo live action de disney con cgi barato

How did u make the tail can u like screen record and show us?

[@DeBlauweOlifant]

The actresses mustve been dissapointed when they learned that they wouldnt get to wear actual tails

[@ambitions1964]

i’m sure they enjoyed the final product more than wearing a tail for a one time shoot. i mean rather see myself as a cgi mermaid rather than wearing a silicone tail that’s probably not the best of quality due to commercial budgets.
