According
to producer Lara Bowden, this project
was not short of volunteers from the
animation department. Little wonder.
Vital statistics: 34D-24-35. Distinguishing
features: 9mm handgun.
"Motion
capture made Lara really come to life,
catching the subtleties of her movement"
- 3D animator JR (who was actually
supposed to be working on the flames,
not the legs).
Animator
Craig Welsh used torches, rim lighting
and water reflections to define her
comely features and create a certain
feel. "Precisely because she isn't
real, she can be the ultimate fantasy
figure" - Maxted Thomas PR.
According
to compositor Maryanne Lauric, the
guys in 3D were always willing to
work late on this one. And the 3D
elements came to her with every curve
finessed to perfection.
