MPC - Steps to create an asset — MPC Paris

Join MPC Paris at the SideFX conference "Workflow In and Around Houdini: Beyond the Interface" from March 19. Discover how Balthazar Sahel and the team tackled complex USD and Solaris workflows on Troll 2, sharing insights on simulation, rendering, and in-house tools like MikChain and Meshroom that streamline production pipelines: https://www.mpcvfx.com/en/news/sidefx-x-mpc-paris-workflow-in-and-around-houdini-beyond-the-interface/

Our team delivered 63 VFX shots, driven by 90 MPC contributors. The work featured a fully CG Troll with complex animation, CFX and lighting, alongside CG helicopters and large-scale explosion, snow, storm, and crowd simulations. To enhance the film’s photorealism and scale, our artists also created detailed 3D environments that brought the world of Troll 2 to life and supported the director’s creative vision.

SYNOPSIS
When a dangerous new troll is awakened, unleashing devastation across Norway, beloved adventurers Nora (Ine Marie Wilmann), Andreas (Kim Falck), and Captain Kris (Mads Sjøgård Pettersen) are thrust into their most perilous mission yet.
