Ready Player One - Halliday's Attic

It was really interesting to search for all the details: NES cartridges, movie posters, video games, books, VHS, comics, the first mobile phone, furniture... You will have recognized the carpet pattern... It took me 15 days to go from searching references to the final grading images.

In the original shot, the sun hit the room through the curtain, creating a strong contrast and a beautiful atmosphere. I tried another approach with the moon hitting the window.  For me, the night brings new stories, it's when you open a book, start to watch a movie, or enter a new adventure with a video game.

You can slide from Clay, Wireframe, Specular and BumpNormals maps.

It was a pleasure to work on a beautiful shot from such an entertaining movie. I hope you like it.
