DSDN104 - Project 1 - Final Week - Assembly/Textures/Lighting/Rendering

Experimenting with textures

Aligning iterations ready for composition

Composition and lighting experiments

For and effective clinical aesthetic i will be using a white background. This will allow me to align my models in way that allows the viewer to clearly see the evolutionary and degenerative cycle that my iterations went through. The composition will suggest it is a investigative study of the virus and its changes, accurately a RNA Virus that undergoes roughly the same cycle as my narrative suggests. I wanted to use oil for my texture, giving my iterations an organic, slimy texture but with my lighting setup it reflected a series of colors as oil does. I then chose to use black glass as my texture as i had the same gloss black look and reflected the light in a way that gave my forms life, as if they were oozing slime. I used three "Day" lights and 4 omni lights near my models to make them reflect the light off their surface as well as cast vivid shadows onto the backdrop. I did this simply to add depth and consistency to my clinical aesthetic and to show the slimey de tailings of my models' surfaces.
