"Let me give you a sneak peek into the climax of the movie: in the film there is a scene where the vikings hid inside an ancient tower that gets torched and eventually crumbles. thinkingParticles was a great FX tool to get a quick by off from the director. What I did was to animate a Cylinder and a few Helpers for the Director’s preview and upon approval, I used the very same, simple geometry to drive the high rise tower referencing the Cylinder, etc.
Animation changes were only done on the low res/previz level and everything else would fall in place due to the procedural nature of the thinkingParticles ! The tower was pre-fragmented with RayFire and re-attached together, then piped into thinkingParticles6. It was hassle-free. .." (Anselm Von Seherr-Thoss)
