Environments : The process of creating my scene.

Environments

Through the process of researching and designing the environment, I first started by looking at a similar scenes which featured the steampunk style.

Below are some examples of the work I looked at,

The pictures above are some examples of artists work. I have used these to help me along as it gives me insight into the gaming industry and more specifically what they are currently creating at the moment, following on I will attempt to use some of these sources to influence and inspire my own work.

I have found environments through my research, examples which can be seen in games such as ‘the order’ and ‘Guns of Icarus Alliance’. These games fit into a very similar genre and aesthetic as how I want to take my project. Taking note on how these levels and the environment are made and the layout of the room.

I have been separating these environments into their different components and categories. This has allowed me to specifically focus of individual areas and how each must be made, as opposed to the entire environment as one.

Car dashboard

Car dashboard In between the first and the second cut scene, there will be a couple of shoots which will be the dashboard of the car. The dash dashboard will show the car spend and the rest below is an example of what the view will see the purpose is to show more detail and movement in the video for the end experience. And some station shots to mix up the footage. After researching car chases sense in films they all ways how the inside of the cars or the dashboard, this is because it keeps the point of forces of what’s happing and changers it over standard outside shots, this keeps the action up to and the view more entailed in the what’s happing or what’s going to happen. A good example of this is a film called Baby Driver From Baby driver, I notice that you can show the viewer a lot of information in a very short period which makes sense. In the opening scene, it shows what the action which the driver is going to do before it happens. Below I have taken screen sh...

Concept art Research

I have been looking at concept art to gain an idea to create my own designs of an airship. Looking at works on Artstation specifically, there are an array of works that I have taken influence from with elements of colour, style, shape etc. I have found this very useful in the researching process and will continue to refer back to these concepts throughout my project to keep a consistent relation to these ideas. The links to each artist's page will be shown in correlation to the images used.

Maya Modelling

Maya modelling Throughout the project I have been using Maya to model all my assets. I have also use ideas created by artists as inspiration for this. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/v86vv https://www.artstation.com/artwork/OPQnk The process that I have taken has been to draw out sketches of the environment which I want to create. To achieve this, I did research to make sure at all of my ideas were in the same aesthetic. The reason that I did all this was to keep all my work as close to contexts as possible and to have the same theme as ‘steampunk’.
