TEXTURING AND LIGHTING

TEXTURING

(all the objects in backgrounds are white, made of slightly see-through paper, Origami feel)

The tiff file of one same texture that will be used on all the objects will be uploaded on a group blog. Download it and keep it in the same file path as “scenes” folder (in “images” ).

So after your finish model will be approved you will be asked to do UV mapping of it and apply given textures.

LIGHTING

I would like to achieve a very subtle all through white scene (with the exception of the Bomb scene where everything consists of silhouettes), made of one same texture, where the lights and shadows actually define objects. To achieve that we need to do” light linking”, which means to define which objects are enlightened by a particular light and which are excluded. This option can be found in:

Window- Relationship editors- Light Liking- Light- centric.

When linking one lights with an objects it is urgent to exclude the other ones and this is only possible with clear naming everything in the scene ( otherwise the process becomes a mess).

FINAL ANIMATIC

MODELLING

Everything needs to look like being done out of paper, cut with scissors, folded, thin, fragile, organic (asymmetric, not very sharp), everyone that is given a modelling task is also expected to finish lighting and texturing of that particular scene.

EVERYTHING THAT YOU CREATE HAS TO BE CLEARLY NAMED AND GROUPED, so anyone that takes the scene over can understand what is going on and so the light linking is easier.
