In the far past, several governments decide to use Earth as a hub for secret operations. Being illegal to travel into the system and interact with an intelligent species under Type 1, no one dared to cross through. In addition to the system’s distance from main systems made it perfect for classified information. In ensure safe operations, contacts were made through obductions and disguise. Some humans were taken to be reeducated and trained to conduct operations. For highly sensitive operations, a government named the RLA sends Tin Men. They are puppet robots created using human technology to prevent information contamination. In unfortunate circumstances, if a human falls out of line, Tin Men would be dispatched for immediate termination.

Footage

Clip is from my first short film/fake trailer, Marathon. It is currently work in progress but should be completed soon!

Integration

In Maya I matched the lighting as close as I could to a color corrected version of the raw footage. Footage was then moved to Nuke for more color correction, noise, etc. Out of Nuke comes the footage with Tin Man integrated. Finally, Adobe Premiere Pro is used to correct the footage to match the film.
