Final render and composition. Dragon rig by by Truong CG Artist, Zelda rig by Christoph (The Stoff) Schoch. Animation by Joey Sangjoon Park. Force field effects done with deformation and particles in Houdini. Dragon fire simulated with Houdini Pyro sop solver. Rendered with Redshift. Composition edited in Nuke.

Composition and Effects Breakdown

Force field effect was created using an interactive system in Houdini to generate a texture where the dragon fire comes into contact. Same interactive mask was used to create 3 particle systems, one on the border of the force field, one being advected by a volume moving away from the impact, and the last system shooting away from the interaction to give the sense of the force field taking damage from the impact. Dragon fire was created using a source object moving with the dragon that created particles which would emit the dragon fire with a pyro sop solver.
