I really want to improve my modelling skills this year so I decided that I was going to make the complete scene in Cinema 4D and then editing in photoshop. Its a low res image as I just wanted to test the grass with the my model, still needs work and I'm not sure about the colour space and lighting, but at least I have an idea of how the final image will look.
I really want to improve my lighting and texturing skills so I've been having a bit of a play with one of my previous models using different lighting techniques. I've also been thinking of about how I want Canvey to look as the back drop to my models. My intentions are to start work on another model whilst using my previous model to try and create the right type atmosphere for my project
Here is my draft video for the establishing shot task, It still needs a lot of work as I don't think that it is working as well as it could do, I've also been looking at the hotel types to help inform my design work. I'm finding it difficult to try and unify my work as well as actually come up with new ideas for a new models each week therefore I have started to think of a set of tactics I can deploy to help create a new hotel. Last week we discussed Canvey heights last week and talked about creating structures that where at least 15ft high this got me thinking about the bug life in the area. Could I take example photographs of the bugs in particular macro shots and create a collage / sketch from this to form the basis of a model?
Collage that has formed the basis of the model that I am currently working on.
The following are sheets from my crit last week/ portfolio pages, it was good to see them in actual print format as the are too small and so I need to rethink my formatting. Using A3 paper is probably the easiest option as it means I can print from home. I may try a combination of drawings using A3 as a base size with large format drawings folding.
