We are tired of being ignored, our cause is legitimate. But they wouldn’t listen to our problems, so now we are making problems for them. Our bots are about to make a mess of this town, and disabling the city’s main frame is where we are about to start…

This project was inspired by the Metro North Train that I took on my commute into NYC for work.  The tunnels were so deep and mysterious, with this ugly yellow hue, and yet they fascinated me.  So I decided to recreate it in Cinema 4D and Octane.

The robot was my husbands idea, so I added it in by modeling and rigging it in Cinema 4D and textured it in Substance Painter.  I wanted to give the impression that he was disrupting the lines of communication for transportation via hijacking the cables.  The sparks were done in X-Particles, and everything (sound, dust, laser scan) was done in After Effects.
