Apple TV Invasion Season II - Alien entity FX (2023)

"Invasion Season II" was the first tv show I got to work on at Framestore. We had a very interesting and well-made FX setup for the alien "entity" which I got to run across many different shots.

I also developed the growth effect for the entity when it swallows one of the characters and encompasses the whole room. The interaction with the walls proved to be tricky, but I made it work with a bunch of SOP level tricks in Houdini.

Furthermore, some of the shots required the entity to have a slightly different look, which came with some fun dev time.

Near the end of the project, I worked on several shots adding flying debris, one of which is featured at the very end of the reel. Note that I didn't work on the entity in those specific shots.
