Final

Here is the final rendering of Grayson Stadium. Due to several difficulties in the rendering, there are a couple issues that I was unable to fix. There are a few flickers in my render, along with the tree line in the background that I was unable to match the movement to the CG camera. I was having issues getting my scene to render with my tree line in maya so I added a last minute tree line in post. In the end there are many things I wish could have looked different in the end. My main intention of the project was to show my architectural modeling skills. I did my best with textures and lighting which are my biggest weakness. It was a challenging and fun project to work on, and I have learned many things during the process.

Updated Textures and Backgrounds!

I finished the matte painting of my tree line. Here is a single frame of shot 2. I have also added a new grass and dirt texture. I hope to begin rendering on Sunday, and will begin setting up my render layers by tomorrow.

Textures Updated.

Here are some stills of my project. The textures on the scoreboard will be added early this week, along with the dugout roof texture. Since there is a 15 MB limit on free accounts on CG textures website I have to wait until tomorrow to get my bandwidth reset. I am still looking into how to add a proper sky along with trees in the background as well as front entrance.

Textures.............!!!!!

Midterm Animatic

Here is an animatic with my locked camera shots. Modeling is basically completed and still with my textures work in progress will be up soon.

New Animatic

This is a new animatic I put together removing all the big camera moves. I used simple dolly, pan, and crane moves.

Class 5 Animatic

This is an animatic of my senior project. I am still working on getting my modeling done. This week i will be working on modeling Landshark Landing, as well as getting the club level zones complete. Stay tuned for more updates.

Fall 2010 Visual Effects Studio I

This blog is to show the progress and breakdown of my senior project in the Savannah College of Art and Design.

I am creating a 3D Rendering of Grayson Stadium in Savannah, GA. This stadium is home to the Savannah Sand Gnats, and is a minor league affiliate for the New York Mets.

For this project, I will be modeling, lighting, texturing, and rendering. I will be submitting the final edit of this project to the Savannah Sand Gnats to potentially have it published in their team website.

I will primarily be using Autodesk Maya 2011 and Photoshop CS5 to complete this project.

Check back weekly to get updates on my work!

Thanks,
