WEEK 4 - Movie trailer

I Am Legend

I AM LEGEND shows buildings in the state of abandonment. Grass growing on the road really interests me and gave ideas to put in my building.

Wall.E

The movie Walle has really good effects on how the world would be like in 100 of year’s time. Although they went on an opposite approach to my idea of have a lot of vegetations and plants growing everywhere.

Planets of the Apes

I like the fact that Planet of the Apes shows a lot of vegetation. The buildings are fairly old. Some of the scenes like the desert are quite off what I wanted.  

The day After Tomorrow

I like the fact that the natural disaster is the reason for abandonment. The cyclone and flooding is what I’m basing my environment to be. This is where that idea came from. The buildings are demolished by the cyclone and water covered the land.

28 Weeks Later

Abandonment looks good. How the cars are left and no occupancy of buildings.

WEEK 4 - blend layer

Materials


These are the 3 materials that I used to create the blend layer for the walls.

 This was the raw outcome of week 4 tutorials using blend layer. I thought the tutorial was really good at making the two materials blend together although it was very time consuming but the outcome paid off really well.

 

 Just experimenting on how it looks on a wall. By the materials blending together it shows a different effect to just one material. It looks more realistic and also looks older by the dirt and moss growing on the custom wall.

 

 I placed the blend layer I made in Photoshop to the left wall to compare to the right wall with just raw materials from 3ds max. The result is really effective when you are going for a decay look.   

I added decals such as moss and dirt drip to both side of the wall right still doesn't have blend layer. As you can see there is not much difference when you add decals. But I still prefer the blend layer look plus decals.
