CAD - Visualisation - Architectural Imagery

The following are images used within a building proposal to achieve planning permission.

 It was my task to visualise 2-dimensional drawings into 3D, explorable models that could be rendered to show the effect the building project would have on the surrounding area at any time of the day.

3D Visualisation - Immersive production

Continuing in my experiments with 3D CAD to show designs for performance art visuals. Here are images depicting an immersive production in which the audience are invited to come and sit within a military tent to be joined by a group of intimidating looking guardsmen from an unnamed totalitarian regime,

Experimenting with presenting Epic on the small stage (Part two)

Continuing on from the previous post, this is an experiment into portraying the unfolding story of a large scale battle using strategically lit vignettes to allow 8 actors to portray a vast conflict.

Experimenting with presenting Epic on the small stage (Part one)

Using lighting, I am attempting to show a battle between two vast medieval armies using just 8 actors!

I have always found that when battles are presented onstage, because there simply cannot be the amount of extras needed, the whole thing ends up usually looking like a bar brawl punch up!

I think, if you were to use effective sound and very narrowly cropped lighting, much like if you were lighting a puppet and avoiding lighting the puppeteer, you could train your actors to be in the correct place at the correct time to have the effect of a crowded battle field.

Lighting from the front in a very tight square and the same, perhaps softer from the sides to keep a naturalistic light with a sense of depth.
View from front several rows back
I would like to see how this could be used across a stage space in a series of vignettes with effective sound, to tell the story of how a battle panned out.

3D Model box render tryouts


Model box in 3D Studio Max

 Today I am going to create a model box in 3DStudio Max.

Starting with the stage and auditorium floor.

Adding the optional proscenium arch and surrounding stage walls.

Adding optional auditorium walls and cieling.

Putting in some example wide beam profile lights



And with some objects to scale
