WWE 2K MyFACTION — UI VFX

I created UI VFX for WWE 2K MyFACTION at Lost Boys Interactive, collaborating with 2K's internal art team. The project required a dynamic lava animation — sparks, heat glow, and camera motion — built entirely in Maya, without access to Houdini. I solved the heat and motion behavior with texture-driven techniques, rendered in Arnold, and composited the 
final sequence in After Effects. We delivered on schedule, helping the team hit their milestone.
