A recent “speedy” personal project exploring my Rhino3D → HoudiniFX → Unreal Engine workflow pipeline.

This piece started as a fully modeled watch concept in Rhino3D and evolved into a cinematic video production using FX, lighting, animation, and real-time rendering techniques. It was a great opportunity to experiment with bridging CAD precision into high-end visual storytelling.
While the compressed version here loses some of the finer detail, I’m genuinely pleased with how the final result came together within the timeframe I gave myself.
