Weinerzilla 

Case study

Project Name: Weinerzilla

Project Overview

This project was about the improvement of VFX (visual effects) for several scenes in the movie titled "Weinerzilla', which was a comedic film inspired by the blockbuster movie "Dogzilla". Our main task was to work on the CGI for dog character and to reintegrate it more smoothly into the live-action shots


Client Requests and Challenges:

The client provided detailed feedback on specific shots, highlighting areas for improvement:


Increased Realism: The existence of the dog character emerged as too blackish and the complexity of the character was too weak when compared to the background. We were looking at tweaking the lighting, shifts, and edges to achieve an illusion of realism and harmony.

Selective Focus: In multiple instances, the scenery featured in the background stole attention from the main character. Smoke effects were asked for to create a wider frame and more visible dog.

Minor Inconsistencies: The customer had noted the missing elements, such as misplaced fingers and unrealistic clouds for the background. The main thing was to guarantee the harmony of the pictures in all the scenes.

Solutions and Deliverables:


Our VFX team addressed the client's requests through the following methods:


Lighting and Shadow Adjustments: We made dog’s nuances especially in the scenes with background light source and perfected the shadows to give more depth and mimic the lighting on the other live action elements.

Depth of Field Effects: We purposefully stripped off background buildings and other distant objects from the scenery to result in the shallower depth of field which spots it out in the foreground.

Edge Softening: The sharps edges of the dog character were being transformed to create more natural and realistic appearance inside the live capture scenes.

Background Consistency: We fixed the illogical cloud formations and eliminated those distractions such as incorrectly placed fingers from the beginning to the ends of the sequences.

 

 

Outcome:

Through the addition of these VFX features, our team was able to achieve a more realistic and visually united appearance of the CGI dog in "Weinerzilla." The relevant light adjustments, the alteration of the depth of field and the fine edge softening allowed the virtual dog to tie in more naturally with the live-action environment and finally lead to a completely immersive experience for the viewers.

Challenges:


Multiple Formats and Languages: The videos should be customized in different sizes and compositions such as (16:9, 4:5, 9:16), to fit the broadcast channels and your social media platforms. Besides, the two-fold translation service was needed.

This funded the integrations of Arabic subtitles and supers. This also required us to fund Arabic subtitles and supers.


Addressing Client Feedback: The client was very genuine and complete with the proof that on during the Industry required me to chop the video length, voice over timing, music volume and even minor fine details like altering wording in supers.
