In this screen capture from the Thorn video, an ark is mutating into a human figure above lava hills.
I posed Victoria 3.0 from DAZ using DAZ|Studio, then I exported her into Bryce, added a texture, aground plain and some terrains. I added a cube and turned it into an ark. I added the desired textures and placed the ark so that Victoria 3.0 is completely inside the ark, then I animated the ark so that it became thinner until it disappeared. I added some camera movement and rendered the scene.
