The project “Hottie on Fire” is a movie in which our team was responsible for the artistic development of key elements of the virtual environment. We created an original design for a virtual work environment where the protagonist can easily manage daily tasks using augmented reality. Our team developed the characters, including the protagonist and his antagonist, creating their unique personas that reflect the depth of each character. We developed animations for their interactions to make the scenes involving them more dynamic and exciting. In addition, we implemented stylized special effects that added visual depth to reflect the main elements of the scripted narrative.
The avatar of the main character is not just a digital character, but his virtual reflection, created by us with the character's character and preferences in mind. We developed the image of a wolf in a kimono, which emphasizes his passion for martial arts. The wolf symbolizes strength, wisdom and justice, but at the same time has a bold character, which makes him unique and memorable. Our team tried to convey these qualities through every detail: from the texture of the fur to the elaboration of movements, so that the character looks alive and emotionally intense.

CHARACTERs
For the design of the main character's virtual room, we developed an interface in pixel art style. This choice is not accidental - the pixel art style adds a special atmosphere to the movie, reminiscent of classic video games of the 90s, which creates a contrast with the high-tech AR environment. Every element of the interface, from widgets to buttons, was designed from scratch to combine simplicity, recognizability and functionality. Our team tried to make every element evoke a sense of nostalgia and lightness in the viewer.
ELEMENTS
Our team created two characters: the avatar of the protagonist, a wolf in kimono, reflecting his passion for martial arts, and the antagonist, a small but dangerous enemy. The antagonist combines comical traits with menace, making his image multi-layered and memorable. We paid special attention to his appearance to visually emphasize this contrast and give the character a unique personality.
