The main goal, for us, in this project was to make our CG look just like the practical locations we shot in. With the environments built out in Unreal Engine, and the close up sceneries textured in 3ds Max, we were able to accomplish this. We added snow blowing passed Bieber and Toliver in the jet ski scenes, flakes of snow into the girls’ hair behind them, and environment reflections into their goggles - all to add to the realism.
The combination of these carefully crafted visuals and effects worked harmoniously to create an impactful atmosphere that emphasizes Bieber's emotional vulnerability throughout the track. Director, Cole Bennett, wanted to make sure this was properly expressed, so our team made it happen.
