Art Blast: Spotlight on Blizzard Lead VFX Artist Sarah Carmody
ArtStation Magazine recently published an Art Blast focused on the visuals for Eternity's End. The piece featured several Blizzard artists focusing on their particular specialty. We thought we'd take a look at the work that each artist does for World of Warcraft and their featured artwork. Blizzard Lead VFX Artist Sarah Carmody is featured for VFX.VFX VFX, or Visual Effects artists create the visual items that you see as you interact with the game. Fancy sword swooshes, sparkly magic blasts, dripping water, pulsing artifacts, glowing critters; all of these types of moving visuals are the work of the talented VFX group. Carmody's piece is an early concept for the Progenitor magic look, showcasing the simplicity of the Progenitors palette along with the complexity of their function. We've all seen the final effects, notably in the travel form that takes us between portals in Zereth Mortis, and in the mechanics for fights with Progenitor elements.
