I was hired to create the following shot for a music video by Eira Wynn Jones. I did all of the work in creating the butterfly, animating it, lighting, rendering, and compositing. I completed the construction and animation of the butterfly over the course of three days, and the lighting and rendering was worked on and tweaked over a week or so (in between other work). In all, I completed the shot in a record time for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed creating it.
(The original shot is copyright to Eira Wynn Jones.)
