PROCESS WORK

We worked on this first assignment alongside with the exercises. As we brainstormed the concept and  applied the techniques we learned from the exercises to the project idea. Starting by generating a moodboard and breaking down key point of how i want my environment look and function, i started gathering all design ideas and mood board on how i wanted in my environment to look overall. Next i sketched an overview of world i wanted to create which was later focused down to more and more detailed idea through multiple concepts and refinements based on the feedbacks. Lastly I have the focused idea in different view points and ambiences.

Here is the compilation: Link

REFLECTION

This assignment helped me understand the importance of pre planning and developing ideas before designing the final environment design. By working on it along with the exercises, I was able to apply the design principles and techniques that I had learned in the actual concept. I realised the importance of ideation, research, collecting references and creating mood board which made it much easier to break down the final concept. This was the exterior of the environment and while i refined my ideas, I learned how a lot of processing and understanding is needed before reaching the final result. The weekly feedback I received was one of the important stage which helped me improve my work and understand why and how the pre production process works. This experiment taught me to be open to new ideas, making changes where necessary, not to finalise on the first attempt and to think more carefully about the purpose, atmosphere and overall aesthetics of the environment.

Overall, this assignment improved my creative thinking, conceptualising and problem solving skills. It gave me more confidence in developing a detailed idea through refinements in each step until the final concept. This was irritating at the start as I get really restless to complete work quickly but along the week my patience and experimentations improved.

We had to sculpt a skull to start off and later proceeded with a rough body mesh of the character, the detailed mesh of the character and the final character with outfit/props. Drive Link for Additional Information :  Link This is the pdf compilation of all the 3 boards, rough character mesh, detailed mesh and final character. Followed by the turntable video of the final character. REFLECTION This development stage was similar to another module i took in this semester which was Game Art but the sculpture of the character is very different in both the as i really had difficulty in processing the character in 3D. It taught me about creativity and storytelling but it was the most stres...
