Mystery Files

Titles, Vis FX and and content graphics for a new series looking forensically at historic mysteries.

422's creative team led by Art Director Leah Walker, are in mid production at the time of writing on a major series destined for National Geographic Channel. The series takes well known historic stories and examines the circumstances in forensic detail, often uncovering new evidence along the way.

The series called for CGI in a variety of styles, helping explain the science of events long past. The clip shown above is from the episode on an iconic London murderer from the Victorian period, for which CGI artist Eduardo Schaal created an occluded render in Maya to portray the scene of a murder.
