DYNAMIC HAIR CUTTING

r&D Project

A flexible system to cut, and recut, moving vellum hair without pre-planned breakpoints

Info

Lets say your long haired action movie star is flying through the air and you need a knife to come close to their face but instead take off half of their hair. Can you do that with premade breakpoints? probably. Can you do that but make it a much more painful process? That's what I decided to try out
