“The music video debuts the launch of Crashtag, the crash test dummy hero character of the video and the world’s first robot influencer – already gaining an early following on Instagram.
“To bring the anthropomorphic Crashtag character to life, Mathematic motion-captured a performance by Ladj Ly, the acclaimed French director of the 2019 film “Les Misérables.”

“Once lookdev was finalized, the team produced the five-minute animated sequence using Zbrush for modeling, Maya for animation, Substance Painter for textures, Nuke and Flame for compositing, Resolve for color grading, and Arnold for the final render.
“Lead Character Artist Camille Gurruchaga oversaw the creation of Crashtag, crafting the character’s background story and psychological profile to inform design decisions, while concept artists simultaneously developed the look of the environments, including the racetrack and larger arena.
