Poster Design

Initial tests and final poster design for this quarter's teaser poster. Saul is looking at his own reflection for the first time in a while. In his own face he sees what he recognizes to be hope and determination to continue living.

Sequence 100 Lighting Tests

Testing Lights and painting over renders to figure out what look we want to achieve. I explored fill and rim lights to guide the eye to the focal point. I will continue with compositing tests to help us make a decision on what style and feeling we are going for.

Texturing

Updated textures, ultimately tested with the lighting.The wall was challenging to texture, because of the dark lighting. The bump map has to be somewhat stronger to work with the low light, but not too strong to make it look like concrete. After the first set of wall textures, my crew and the rest of the studio gave me feedback on making it seem more like lath and plaster. The color and texture of the table were especially challenging because if it was too white, it looked desaturated. But if it was too warm, it blended in too much with the couch, so we found a compromise.
