Walt Disney Animation : Encanto

Mysterious Bruno has the power of clairvoyance represented by sand and shards of emerald.

I was the effects lead on Bruno’s Vision and we experimented with multiple techniques before landing on a fluid sim mapped to a parametric dome. The green rivulets acted as an opposing force to the sand flow, creating the main positive image. By attenuating the strength of the rivulets we could cause the vision to appear or dissipate.
