Oscar & Co.

My first project to submit is one of my most favorite from my second year in Esma Lyon. During this, we learned how to create and groom fur in Xgen. I designed a character, Captain Oscar the Otter with the prospect of experimenting with some stylized shapes in modeling, and tried some wet look fur look for the shading. Below you can see some steps of the process.

Next is the work I did during the short film I worked on in a team of four students during our 3rd year. We had 6 weeks to produce a movie of 30 seconds and I was responsible for the Lighting, Prop Modeling and LookDev, Character LookDev and full Compositing of the shots below. You can find some stills with the steps of the compositing.

The story is a wacky adventure of a crazy spaceship captain, Buzz Sealdrin and his crew as they face a dangerous obstacle in their journey across the cosmos. Check out some still frames from the shots I worked on.

This project was done with Maya, Mudbox, Mari, Renderman, Photoshop, Nuke and Blender.

Here is also a process of one of our characters, for which I did Texturing/Shading/Compositing.

Last project of this entry is a lookDev work I did during my second year as well. The concept was to work on an insect or an amphibian to practice creating something organic. I went with a poison dart frog, a Ranitomeya Amazonica. It was a project full of new knowledge learned because we were introduced in Mudbox and Blender.

You can see more steps and AOVs of this project in the end of my demo reel along with some more works.

Thanks for looking!
