CG Trees
iaian7 » blog John Einselen, 22.02.07Since my personal studio has Tree Designer, I’ve been working from home recently. Great fun, as I get to play music and movies in the background whilst I work. Unfortunately, I also end up working all night; the record this week has been going from lunch (after already working all morning at the office) to 2 in the morning. Straight, or close enough. Thankfully I’ve gotten more sleep recently, and my 120 tree variations are finally rendered.
There are 10 models each of three types, roughly shaped after pines, cedars, and a cross between temperate and semi-tropical deciduous trees. 4 different coniferous branches and 2 different deciduous applied to simple geometry (plus a cutter mask). Plus each tree was rendered from a couple different angles, getting the maximum amount of variations with the least amount of modeling time. With the updated lighting rig from last night, I think they’ll fit the bill for upcoming matte paintings.
Very nice!
