For Green Juice by A$AP Ferg ft. Pharrell Williams, RubenFro created real-time volumetric and particle-based environment VFX using photogrammetry from a 360 camera array and Leica long-range LiDAR scanning.
The environments ran in real time in Unity3D with custom point-cloud and volumetric shaders developed by RubenFro, giving the video a charged, spatially fragmented world that sits between scanned reality, performance, and digital abstraction.
