“The Keeper,” also known as “Trautmann,” is a 2018 biographical drama film directed by Marcus H. Rosenmüller. The movie tells the true story of Bert Trautmann, a German World War II paratrooper who becomes a goalkeeper for the English football club Manchester City. Set against the backdrop of post-war England, Trautmann faces significant hostility due to his German heritage but gradually wins over fans with his exceptional talent and sportsmanship. His most notable achievement is playing in the 1956 FA Cup Final with a broken neck, securing a victory for Manchester City. The film also explores his personal life, focusing on his relationship with his wife, Margaret, and his journey of redemption and acceptance. “The Keeper” is a moving tale of resilience, forgiveness, and the unifying power of sports.
While working at ARRI Media (now Pharos), I contributed to a project by handling 3D modeling, cloth simulation, shading and texturing, lighting, and compositing. My role involved creating detailed and realistic 3D assets, ensuring dynamic and lifelike cloth movements, and enhancing the visual appeal through meticulous shading and texturing. Another task I worked on was lighting to create the desired atmosphere and performed compositing to seamlessly integrate all elements.
