"Alien in the City"- INTERGALACTIC #vfxprompt

My entry for the Intergalactic #vfxprompt.
The 3D objects used were all from Sketchfab and animated in Blender. The alien wasn't rigged so Rigify was used to give it an armature. I then added some shape keys for the facial expressions.
The background images were from pexels.com.
Most of the stock footage was from productioncrate.com except for the energy beam which is from triunedigital.com.
Sound FX and music was from productioncrate.com and zapsplat.com.
The 3D objects were exported from Blender with transparent backgrounds and composited onto the still images with HitFilm Pro.

Great animation work on the alien!

Good story, nice animation, love the masking of the buildings to get the scene depth.

Thanks! Next I'm going to attempt a walk cycle.

Originally the spaceship just flew across the scene without any masking. After the mask was applied it looked more like it was flying through the city instead of in front of it. The fact that someone noticed this made the extra steps worth the time. 😀

It's the little touches like that, that being the work up a level. Keep it up.
