For the Tree of Life Beacon of Magic I was given the honor of helping with previsualization for the initial animation and development of the "EARidescent" Shader as well as modeling out most of the flowers that decorate the Tree of Life. We wanted to take extra care in talking about the nature for this park and picked to model flowers that were found exclusively in Animal Kingdom across all of the themed lands.

Special shoutout to Ed Paten and MDSX for taking this look through to the finish line during the pandemic!
