ABSTRACT
In Jungle Cruise, Sancho is one of the cursed conquistadors whose partially-decomposed body is composed of honeycombs that the honeybees ride on and has honey dripping off all the time. His topology will change throughout the sequence and need to interact with surrounding environment, which creates unique visual and technical challenges. To achieve this we established a procedural workflow from modeling to rendering that is both efficient and art-directable.
