Full CG transition shot

Akwasi wanted a transition from the barber shop to a memory, something that still fit into the context of the indoor scene however would transition seamlessly into the outside world. He emphasised the importance of it feeling 'graceful' which I hoped to achieve with one single and smooth camera move

I started this project off by using the 3D face tracker in Nuke, this enabled me to track and export both 3D objects and cameras into one Maya scene to work out how I could knit the two scenes together

Creatively however we wanted to make the shot feel as though it belonged in the film as it hadn't featured any transitons that were similar to what we had initially planned. As a result we decided to follow the clippers instead to further push the story and themes of the barber shop
