whiplash - Musicvideo

This music video was created in collaboration with Sophie Naomi Rieger and Andreas Schmitt for the song ''whiplash'', which is from the EP ''anytime but now'', produced by Scrutch and Jonas Feurle.

The project also served as my final assignment for my Bachelor's degree and was completed over a seven-month period, partly alongside my compulsory internship. The production schedule was divided into three months of pre-production, largely conducted during late-night sessions after full days of internship work, and four months of production.

The project was created almost entirely in Blender 4.3.2, except for the main character and the island, which were sculpted in ZBrush.

I worked as the project director, as well as sculptor, modelling artist, 3D animator, lighting artist, compositing artist and storyboard/previz artist.

Musicvideo Breakdown

Storyboard - Maincharacter Design wasn't finalised, therefore a placeholder was created that took up more space so the framing would still be possible with other designs

Early Animatic created to test pacing of Storyboard - later adapted and reduced in 3D Previz for better pacing and preventing deadline problems

Final 3D Previz Version used for Musicvideo

We wanted the character to be affiliated with gardenwork due to his love for Flowers, wich led us to creating the rocky skin and dress him in dungarees typically used in gardening.
