She/Her - Why did you create this work?
Tarzan is a teaser music video produced for Yoba's EP album. Yoba shared that as a child, when she was alone at home, she often imagined playing with animal friends like Tarzan. Inspired by this, I created an animation that adds a narrative layer: animal friends approach a lonely child playing with animal dolls in her room and lead her out, turning her imagination into reality." - How were your illustrations used?
Teaser music video/Promotion - What materials and techniques did you use?
I used Cinema 4D as my main program, setting the scene layout and animating within it. To achieve a handcrafted feel, I modeled in ZBrush and used Substance Painter for textures and colors. Clothes were designed in Marvelous Designer, and I used Octane Renderer for rendering. - Was this project commissioned?
