Here’s a little bit about what went into creating this beauty!
While waiting for the sound to be finished for The Freeman Chronicles episode 2, part 2, we decided on taking assets used on the film and give the fans a camera filter to play with.
The Sentry Turret featured in the series was modeled in Blender. For this filter, we simplified it to be phone-friendly using Autodesk Maya. The glasses were created in this 3D package as well. We then took these assets into Facebookâs AR Studio, now called Spark Studio, to convert it into a camera filter.
Their Patch Editor feature in the Freeman Chronicles is a visual scripting tool which gave us the flexibility to make this filter fully interactive. It let the user freely choose where to place the turret in their environment, fire on demand, and on selfie mode. Choose whether to rock freeman’s mustache or not.
