RBD FRACTURE

First, I acquired a Model of the Space Needle from Sketchfab
https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/space-needle-49fb2e3571294443b9406424ce42645e .
I then created a rigid body simulation in Houdini to ensure the model fell in a specific way upon laser impact. Afterward, I added pyro smoke and debris. I built the laser effect using Blender, incorporated Cesium maps in Unreal Engine, and composited the final shot using Nuke.
