Major Project

Concept Generation

Ever since I first watched Dragon Ball as a kid, I’ve been a huge fan. The incredible world of Saiyans, the intense battles, and, of course, the iconic Kamehameha beam have all been a huge part of my childhood. Dragon Ball has inspired me in so many ways, teaching me values like determination, perseverance, and the power of growth. And since that very moment, I have dreamed of becoming a Super Saiyan!

Now, with the skills and knowledge I have gained over the years studying VIsual Effects, I’m ready to bring that dream to life. For my major project, I’m taking on the challenge of recreating the legendary Kamehameha beam attack in live action. This isn’t just about making something cool—it’s about making my childhood dream a reality. I can’t wait to combine my passion with the technology and creativity I have learned to create something that truly honors this incredible series. Get ready for an epic journey, because this is going to be one unforgettable experience!

As to begin with, I did some experiment using the Magic Beam Project I made for the Previous Module. And than I Shot myself through Phone camera and tracked the data in nuke and took it to Houdini and than created a path for the beam and readjust the position and brought again to Nuke to combine both the footage.
