THE BRIEF

Details option

The idea for this episode was to have snakes coming out of the dead man's stomach. Originally they tried using rubber snakes in conjunction with filming live snakes on set to create the scene, but quickly realized the rubber snakes did not look real at all, nor did they have the same movement as the real snakes. That's where we came in to create the numerous snake scenes.

Details option 2

I supervised the CG scenes. We modeled the snake and I created two rigs for the snake. One simple one that moved along a path for the scenes where it would move up the woman's leg. The second main rig was setup for more intricate movement. Originally there was a substanced and zbrushed scale texture, but we realized that wouldn't work as it wasn't holding up close to camera. I then created a combination of using a vector diamond texture and masks that held up along its body blending into its head that kept the original zbrushed texture.
