Modeling of Scene Geo, Work In Progress

Building on the initial concept idea I had in my head, using a variety of references.

Block-out, Layout of Scene Geo

After watching the helpful briefs I started my process with a little story description..

Story Description

---------------------------

The demon creature had been trapped on a remote planet for a very long time.

The security of the devil’s trap has been compromised.

A deep space guardian has been sent to the planet to resecure the creature.

---------------------------

I did some brainstorming and came up with several ideas. Decided to start with the "devil's trap."

Initial placement idea for FX in this area.

Setup some initial light sources in Houdini to get an idea.

The main lighting, I think of as coming from something like the moonlight of multiple moons in the sky. These lights are currently a cool pale blue color.

The environment is a warm red. I setup an environment light to be that color but would need to change the sky to get the full effect.

This image was rendered in Houdini's Mantra renderer which I plan to be using for the remainder of the competition going forward.
