I was brought in by the post house to support the retouching process, focusing specifically on the hero elephant. My task involved adjusting lighting setups, applying custom paint and texture passes, and ensuring all retouch elements were delivered in a flexible way for the final agency allowing each layer to be toggled on and off easily during handover.

Beyond the initial brief, I decided to take the visual further as a personal exploration and focus on a more cinematic look. Using the supplied elements, I crafted a complete key visual developing the full look and feel with added detail, depth,
and storytelling.
