February 20, 2015 : Set Design Underway

With the main characters modeled and rigged, it’s time to work on the sets for the various scenes. One is already pretty much finished. Below is a quick render:

The character was placed in the scene just to ensure proper proportions. For the actual scenes in the short, I plan on using After Effects to pump up the backgrounds; but these renders show the general design. A variation of the set above will be used in a quick sequence, and that shot is below (I quickly put the character in the scene so ignore the fact that he isn’t really sitting in the chair):

I’ve used many rooms in previous shorts so this set was straightforward. Some of the extras in the scene had to get built from scratch, but I included a few callbacks to previous projects. There are three major remaining sets that need to get done. One will be pretty complex, while the other two are relatively simple. All of them will take some time, but I’m happy with how this one turned out.
