🏆 Best of Term - Effects | Demolition (Fall 2025)

BFA student Manav Gala pushed himself to explore new techniques in this Demo Reel 1 project, inspired by the scale and intensity of films like Interstellar and Twisters. The scene focuses on metal-based destruction and procedural vegetation to create a strong sense of danger and urgency.

To achieve this, Manav developed custom solutions for controlled metal deformation and created the cornfield using Vellum hair simulations in Houdini. Congratulations, Manav!
