This must see for all VFX artists is Kei"s Space BattleYamato breakdown.
"Space Battleship YAMATO" is one of the most famous and popular animation-series in Japan made in the 70"s. In 2010, "Space Battleship YAMATO" was recreated as a live action feature film. It was the first challenge to work on, expressing realistic space battles in Japan.
When the director Takashi Yamazaki of Shirogumi Inc -- the main VFX Production Company of this project - started "Space Battleship YAMATO", he began looking for partners who were able to work on and create heavy and complex effects. He accidently stumbled upon my work and that was how I initially got in contact with him. During that time, I was working with my previous employer -- a company called OXYBOT - but I"ve always had such respect for him, ever since I was a student, and was so excited when he approached me with an offer where I was put in charge of some difficult and complex VFX shots for the project.
"Space Battleship YAMATO" is a very memorable project for me, as I was able to work with director Takashi Yamazaki for the first time ever!
