Six Flags Cliffhanger // 3D Animation
This concept brings the thrill of the Cliffhanger coaster to life by imagining what it would look like if screams could be bottled. We began with green and blue screen footage of guests reacting on the ride, then composited their faces into custom-built 3D potion bottles to represent “captured screams.” Every bottle was modeled, textured, and lit in Octane to create a stylized lab environment with a mysterious and almost steampunk vibe. The opening coaster footage came from a separate production company. We carefully matched the tone and motion to bridge their live-action content into our full 3D world. As the camera pulls into the cabinet, each animated bottle pulses and glows with eerie green light while the trapped faces shift and react from within the glass. The result is a surreal mix of practical performance and digital world-building.
