ASU Sparky – Stomp The Bus
In collaboration with our good friends at Copper Post, we brought ASU’s mascot to life in 3D for their football game intro. The mascot, Sparky, was 100% digitally recreated in every shot. The benefit of a CG recreation over live action is that 3D gave us the ability to swap out Sparky’s uniform to match whatever the football team wore for each game. In all, five uniform options were created. The character’s head and shoes were recreated digitally using photogrammetry; the uniform and gloves were recreated and simulated on the character using Marvelous Designer. Character movement was captured using a Perception Neuron Pro motion capture system. Check out the video, and behind-the-scenes videos below!
