Company: Picture Mill Title: The Last Airbender end title credits. Contribution: All elements except the fluid fire setup. I took the attributes from a Maya fluid fire simulation from another artist and applied it to the emitting geometry. I modeled, textured and animated the extruded geometries of the fire and water tubes; created all the ember particles that are flying off the main flame tube and all the water droplets emitting off the water tube. Designed the composition and animated the objects and and the camera move. Rendered out several passes to be composited by other artists.
