For this project we were tasked with creating a realistic head double of Rag 'n' Bone Man which would be used throughout the duration of the video. This involved taking a 3d scan of Rory, digitally cleaning it up, 3d printing the head, moulding it, casting it in silicone and then painting, hair punching and finishing it to a high level. A base was also designed for this in Fusion so that it could support itself on a table but also look like an electronic kid's toy with a battery compartment and on/off button. This project was completed in a total of 12 days.
