John Wick Parody - Nuclear Key Codes

November 3th 2020

John Wick is back for vengeance, and this time he is looking to get his hands on the nuclear key codes. Sadly for him, Jigglypuff found them first, and it’s have grown fun of the flash drive. The real question here is, what is Jigglypuff going to do with them?

The story behind this film is one that a lot of filmmakers can relate with, and it goes like this: Jiggypuff wasn’t part of the original script, it was just a regular dude. We did some choreography and blocking in order to have everything ready. And Sarah is always ready for action. All we had to do was to show up. The day of the shooting, this person disappeared, and several hours later we were notified about him over sleeping.

We were left with two choices, make it or not. So we came with the idea of replacing him with a 3d character. And after a little bit of brain storming we decided that Jigglypuff was a worthy opponent to John With.

The same next day we show up and did the thingy. Luckily, Sarah had figured out that you are required to fall to the floor mostly all of the times she is in one of my stories. So she brought a carpet with her in order to avoid licking my delicious sticky floor, (which is not the case as of today due to my new roommate’s magical cleaning floor sorcery).

The post production as a straight forward prosses at this point of my life. I have the old action essential assets pack so I used it, I had a models of jigglypuff around and the sword was a gift, (by the way, it is a Sharpless sword, better be safe).

Jigglypuff’s mouth animations were done on after effects, and his body on blender. The shoot were she moves her eyes was a photoshop layered composition. And I took samples of her voice from the game Super Smash Bros.
