FILM PROJECTS
Film projects group work, inspired by "Suicide bunnies". This film was shot at the Vooruit in Ghent and made by:
Matts Verkest: 3D modeling (‘making of’ movie, speaker image and banner designs)
Kobe Roels: Animation
Cedric Van De Walle: Rigging & FX
Ann-Sophie D'hollander: Lighting & Shading
Matthias Peiffer: Materials & Color Correction
Lars Desomer: Animation & Sound
Team: Design & Story, Filming, Compositing & Rendering
Let’s GO BACK TO THE FUTURE
SCULPTING
Based on Marty McFly, a full person sculpt with clothes and props. The result is more of an action figure than a real life person due to the style of sculpt and choice in texture sizes. Initially, I was aiming for a realistic style, but this would be quite a challenge for a first full body sculpt. Everything, except for the hoverboard which was made in 3ds Max, was sculpted in ZBrush and exported via GoZ-plugin along with normal, texture and uv maps to Maya in which I have textured and made the hair with XGen. Finally it was rendered in Arnold.
FLYING EASTER EGG
COMPOSITING
A project in which combining 3D with real life footage was the focus, it was inspired by "Tiny Worlds" (tv series). I designed and modeled the toy in 3ds Max and it was later rigged and animated in Maya - rigging done by Seppe Vangrunderbeek. The water simulation was done with Bifrost (Maya) and it was my first ever attempt at creating and rendering a water simulation. Finally, this was rendered with Arnold, Maya, and composited with Blackmagic Fusion 8.
MY GRANNY
SCULPTING
A sculpt made in ZBrush based on reference pictures I made of my grandmother. I tried to go with a more Roman / Greek style as this was my first ever finished bust sculpt. The first two images were rendered in ZBrush, with the second one being a representation of the wire frame topology (BPR render). The other images were created in Maya, with Arnold.
Ka-Chow!
3D PRODUCTION
Re-creating a scene from a movie or tv series: reimagined scene from the movie ‘Cars’, Flo’s V8 Cafe. Model creation in 3ds Max and scene buildup, texturing and rendering in Maya (Arnold).
ONE OF THE GREATEST COMIC ACTORS OF ALL TIME
ANIMATION
Animation based on a scene from Buster Keaton, an American film comedian, stunt performer and director. Nicknamed the “Great Stone Face” of the silent screen, he is known for his deadpan expression and imaginative and often elaborate visual comedy. The extract, on which the animation is based on, is taken from “One Week” (1920).
