WYNN LAS VEGAS - F1
For the first-ever F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, the team at Deva crafted a dynamic installation piece for the Wynn Hotel, designed specifically to showcase on their custom display screens. I had the pleasure of contributing to the visual effects, focusing on the race car's high-octane details – like the streaking speed lines and a roaring jet engine enhancement. 
I created a custom Houdini rig that enabled rapid iteration and precise control over the animation's energy and flow. This procedural setup allowed us to fine-tune the visuals, ensuring every frame delivered a sense of speed, excitement, and spectacle in line with the event’s scale and ambition.
