Percy is a young barn owl with a deformed wing that makes flying difficult for him. He often watches other birds soar above the canopy, wondering when it will be his turn. Despite his determination, his failed attempts have started to wear down his spirit.

Shot Breakdown

Character animation and layout was completed in Maya before eventually transitioning to Houdini Redshift for CFX, environment FX, texturing, and lighting. Various systems ranging from a dynamic fog tool, generated grass, canopies, and individual grass cards were utilized for maximum appeal and stylization. Every shot's composition was carefully considered.
