Explosion and Pond VFX
I created the stylized explosion and water for these shots in a commercial I worked on at Mutiny FX. I created the 3D explosion and water elements in Blender and composited in After Effects. Another team member did the rotoscoping. Photogrammetry was done with Meshroom. Tracking in Syntheyes.

Photogrammetry was created from the camera move for water reflections and placement of the CG water.
