Learn how large-scale destruction is created in real film pipelines.
Using the bridge sequence as your production base, you’ll simulate structural collapse, rigid-body dynamics, secondary debris, dust, and pyro – building a clean, controllable setup that reflects true studio workflows.
Every step focuses on clarity, efficiency, and understanding the “why” behind the tools, so you can create destruction that looks both physically convincing and visually powerful.
