Warhammer Space Marine VR

I had an awesome time collaborating with Next Gen Dreams and Zero Latency on some VFX for Warhammer Space Marine VR: Defenders of Avarax project! As a huge Warhammer fan, this was an incredibly fun and fulfilling experience to be a part of \m/ The game runs seamlessly on HTC Vive headsets and is now available to play at all Zero Latency centres worldwide.

I did the Hologram Shader for the Briefing sequence. The challenge was the fact that we wanted the city hologram to get cropped when it pan and zoom during the sequence.
