Markus created videogame-character versions of Cedric The Entertainer
and a villain for the movie Code
Name: The Cleaner. In the story, Cedric (as a spy) has a "Signature
Move" that is his secret weapon - but he may just have copied it
from a video game!
The characters were used in a mock video game setup
in the film to illustrate the special move.

-
Markus used Maya
to model and rig the Cedric character based on still images
shot by the film production crew. The low-poly video-game
look was key to the plot point in the movie.
-
The series of fight moves, defining cedric's signature
move, were animated in Maya. Markus based the motion on
multiple film references.
-
The villain and his weapon were also modeled after an
actor with textures based on wardrobe clothing.
-
Markus created the textures using Photoshop
- Two versions of the animation are featured below. One
is the version as it appeared in the movie. The other is
the complete signature move, in pre-shaded form.
