I’ll be finishing up at Gnomon School in a few weeks with a shiny new reel… I’m excited to share one of the projects!
I’ve been watching and have been a big fan of the show Gravity Falls (created by Alex Hirsch) and decided to build Mabel and Dipper’s attic bedroom from the show. As a lighter, I’ve been wanting to experiment with one landscape or interior in different times of day or seasons, and I thought this scene would be the perfect fit. The following is the result…. hope you like!
Software used: Maya, Marvelous Designer, Mari, & Nuke.
So, I used the digital Emily head in my Commercial Production class last term as a lighting exercise. I took 2 different reference images and imitated the lighting setup in 3D. Here are the results!
So, last term I got to work on a fun project in my Visual Structure class at Gnomon. I read Scott Westerfeld’s first installation from his series, The Uglies. Myself and another student from class teamed up and chose two moments from the book to interpret and turn into 3D images.
I was responsible for some prop modeling, fire fx, lighting, shading & compositing.
