Week 2 Advanced 3D Development

Advanced 3D - Concept Art

Advanced 3D graphics, my final year project, to start development I had to choose a piece of concept art which then I had to work from the chosen piece and develop it into a 3D environment, The 3D environment must be very similar to the chosen concept art although it can change during development I will try to produce this scene as close to the concept art as possible this will be a great asset within my final show reel as it will show potential employers that I have the skill set to produce an 3D environment from 2D digital concept.

During my research I found this piece of Game Of Thrones concept art, I really like this piece as it offers a lot visually, I especially like the tone of the scene e.g. lighting this really makes the scene special and visually beautiful, I hope to recreate this in the form of a 3D adaptation.

 Although this is my final out-come during the design process I must research into appropriate advanced techniques and technologies which can be used during the production process, each process will vary depending on the needed situation during development

While looking at theses particular techniques and technologies, I will determine which technologies will contribute more towards the development of my 3D environment as some technique or technologies could be useful in certain situations but not others this can take place with time constraints of memory constraints.

As there are areas that my concept lacks before the development process I started looking at various concept arts that I could use a reference which relate to my chosen concept art so that during development I could fill in the gaps in which my concept art lacks.

Breaking up concept art

I started to block out my concept art for which area would need more attention as it lacks in detail needed to fully create a 3D environment I started looking into various pieces of reference which would realistically fit within the style and theme of my chosen concept art.

Reference for concept 

After the development this will be shown within my final show reel which will be processed on my portfolio.
