This project originated from the Compositing for 3D course at Ringling College of Art and Design under the Department of Motion Design. It's crucial to emphasize that this project was solely undertaken at Ringling College and was not aired on Nickelodeon.
​
We were fortunate to receive support from Nickelodeon, who generously supplied our class with original plate footage, stock images, and animated elements from the original KCA2020 Hero Spot. Our assignment was to faithfully replicate the composite.
​
Displayed is the portion of the project that I worked on. My responsibilities included corner pinning, tracking, keying, rotoscoping, color correcting, and compositing elements together in Nuke and After Effects.
The animated components were contributed by Nickelodeon-employed
artists:
• Megan Visconti (@megaa_beth)
• Hannah Segraves (@hannahsegraves_)
• Christian Huthmacher (@rederiffic)
• Gonzo Janer (@gonzalo_janer)
• Tim Lines (@timmylines)
• Chris Stearns (@nachrisco)

During this Project, Nickelodeon Animation Director Tim Lines, and
VFX Supervisor Ish Nazmi reviewed and critiqued our work.
