I created everything you see inside of Houdini. The environment posed its fair share of learning experiences. I looked at a lot of references of Hogwarts castle and Harry Potter films to ensure I honor the set accordingly. The magic in center stage is the star of the show and it involved 4 layers of 2M + particle count simulations. Finally, I wanted to add an homage to the late Alan Rickman, who played Snape in the films. He was absolutely my favorite character and I wanted to honor him here in form or another. I tried to stay faithful to the colors used throughout the film. The magic in the center uses the same color values as Avada Kedavra.
