Nothing, not even an epic monster battle, can stop Baby Groot stealing the limelight.

The Abilisk also projects deadly ‘matter waves’: rainbow-coloured beams with bands of fibre, which then had to be reflected off the gold city below and bounced back onto all of the creatures.

The team ingested the camera work into the pipeline, splitting the sequence into 11 pieces and assigning each one to an individual animator, creating a tool that allowed them to sew the shots together seamlessly. The team needed to convey the weight of the creature: he is colossal, heavy but also graceful and dynamic, with sophisticated muscle and skin-sliding simulations. Pre-vis’ed by The Third Floor London, the scene features the eight-tentacled, semi-translucent ‘Abilisk’. Gunn loved the test which saw the vines grow out from his hands and snap, which led to a collaboration between CFX and Animation to come up with the right look and movement.

He also has vines generating from his hands, allowing him to get up to mischief. ‘These patches were selectively shrink-wrapped back onto the base to keep the simple forms of the face whilst maintaining the feeling of bark.’ ‘We created an expressive stretchy base deformation that kept simple silhouettes for his facial expressions, then added a layer of 'crust' deformation which we were able to paint and tune to create 'crust islands,' or patches of rigid bark’, explains Laurie Brugger, Head of Rigging. He is still young but he is engaged, though easily distracted and at points oblivious to his surroundings.’īaby Groot is made of bark, which couldn’t look too ‘aged,’ and his face is very simplistic in design, which proved to be a challenge when it came to rigging. After a couple of tests, it became clear that he had to have a bigger capacity than that. ‘We took his name literally and kept playing around with the idea of him being a baby. The process was lengthy: ‘We went back and looked at Groot in the first movie, at his personality and character’, explains Elver. Reincarnated from the ashes of adult Groot in the first movie, Baby Groot was a challenge for the team, who had to question how young he would actually appear, how he would integrate with the rest of the gang, and how much range he would have. Framestore was lucky to be able to start work on Baby Groot's animation from the beginning, having jumped in with the Comic-Con trailer featuring the new addition.
