Lighting and Rendering Practice - R2D2 Escape!
𝗕𝗖𝗜𝗧 - 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗗𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗺𝗮 (𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯)
I used Arnold renderer, as well as Star Wars assets provided in class. I added additional characters such as Stormtroopers and BB-8 alongside R2-D2 to create a more interesting narrative. To optimize render times I worked with render layers, and decided on compositing in Photoshop.
Focus:
- Arnold Rendering
- Lighting
Models from Sketchfab:
