Panning Lighting on Dummy environemnt

There are 2 main light sources in this room, the lamp and the natural light through the window. For the window light I used an are light. I feel that the area lights look more realistic.

Final Ship

Lewis and Mu Li wanted the outer rim of the ship to be red. This is the final version of the ship.

The Environment

After finishing the my texturing and lighting for the Dummy Project, I was dissapointed to receive a basic model of a Super Market environment to texture. The environment didn't even come with a roof. I could only work with what I was given so I textured the walls and the floor and placed shaders on the shelve's. I created the textures in photoshop from scratch to suit the style of the concept art.

Bottle Reference

I decided to darken the tone of the glass shaders for the bottles so that we didn't have to emulate liquid.

Assets for Pirates

The bottles are a combination of shaders and textures. The glass for and plastic for the bottles were created from scratch by myself along with the textured labels. I originally used automatic mapping for the pizza boxes but the textures kept moving around each time I rotated the object so I Planar mapped them instead.

I blurred the names on the products so that the film didn't infringe on any copyright etc...

Problems with importing Assets

Unfortunately the environment was a large file so when it came to the process of importing assets my Mac kept crashing. We got around this problem by using a technique called Referencing, where you can save the model and textures in indivual files and import them into a scene with using too much memory.

Quick Lighting and Rendering

This needs to rendered in Mental Ray for the normals and shaders to work. Shadows are Ray Traced with 3 point lighting system. 2 Areas lights and a point light. Poly count is low as well so it won't put any stress on rendering times.

The front of the Scooter

I didn't like the extra detail that i was putting on the front so kept it how it was which was sleek.

Progression 2

The Chair took a whole week end by itself to do. It was the most difficult thing in the room to texture. I'm glad I've got it out the way.
