Lil Nas X - Panini

I was super lucky to be brought onto this project by Mike Diva, working closely with him & David Ariew to complete the nature holograms seen at the end of the video. David did the look dev for the islands, then I added some additional 3D assets, as well as handled the final compositing of them. I did additional compositing throughout the video, including a CGI backpack as Skai Jackson jumps out of the airplane.
