Story by Felix Massie

Rain or Shine is Nexus’ interactive 360° mobile VR short film made for Google Spotlight Stories. I had the pleasure to work along with Nexus team on the development and creation of 8 character rigs for the film. Despite of the apparent simplicity of the 2d designs, maintaining the graphic look of the characters and giving the animators enough flexibility were the main challenges. The real-time side of the rigs lies in the usual joint hierarchy ready for the Moxie engine used in previous Spotlight Stories projects.
