[WEEK 13] R&D

Finishing concept art, I finished drawing a character sheet for reference and am working on modelling 3D assets that I would use. 

I had a bit of trouble in this area as I still haven’t planned/explored possible layouts of the room along with the placement of other furniture such as cabinets and drawers. In the end, I have somewhat of a layout but maybe I will do the exploration in the holiday, along with other work that I didn’t have time to further improve in order to meet the submission deadline for the Preproduction package.

• Playing around with lighting and the aiToon shader was fun and it gave me with a lot of cool render images. I am still unsure what I want with my 3D visuals but for now this is a good start.

• I also had the opportunity to play around a bit with some simulations that I could include in my work. I started on a rope net mesh that would be placed under the mattress and would fall under gravity. This is to give the bed a more iconic design that tells the audience of a university room. I based this idea off of Monsters University (movie). I also have done ‘crumple’ simulations to make a crumpled paper ball with partial success.
