Technique The grass field is built with a particle system seeded by a standard Photoshop "Dune Grass" library brush. The single brush sprite was duplicated several hundred thousand times with varying size and color using Trapcode Particular. :: The building is a composite of several dozen wall and detail photographs taken around Istanbul. :: The main character animation was created by photographing our actor 128 times, importing the images as a sequence and adding morphing motion blur in post.
