An assessment which I'm pretty fond of the result. The animated thunderbolt was provided to us and what was asked of us was to colour correct and grade it according to our choice of background. The asset included a few masks which you could use to alter its colour, which I did! In order to construct the bg I gathered reference images, added simple things such as ramps, noise and colour correct nodes, coupled it with fx smoke elements and voilà ✨
