3D Artist Filmed a Dragon in Iceland Using Blender

3D Artist Alex from Compositing Academy, specializing in digital compositing training through online Nuke courses, showcased an interesting and intriguing project featuring a CG dragon in a cave, visualized in the Icelandic landscapes.

The artist filmed the creature using new Simulcam Virtual Production techniques with an app called Lightcraft Jetset, which works together with Blender and allows you to film a character while you're in a real location.
