Additional Information:


    We integrated 3D props and characters into 2D backgrounds by carefully texturing them to match the hand-painted style, ensuring a seamless blend during compositing. In Nuke, we combined 2D and 3D elements, adjusting lighting and shadows to maintain consistency. Special effects were created using Houdini or 2D animation software.
