Long Way Down (Street Scene)- Virtual Reality movie

Lighting and Rendering, Virtual Reality

Long Way Down is a 3D animated short movie. Virtual Reality based movie which is interactive, where you can experience the movie as the POV character.

Probably the most challenging projects i have worked on, mainly because of the amount of trial and errors we had to do for the project to render in 4k resolution.

My main responsibility  for this shot was setting up render layers and render optimizing the scene. Finally compositing all together to make the final output.

 

List of things i worked to get the final output for this scene are:

  • Light tweaking (intensity, shadow quality, color)
  • Model clean up.
  • Color Correction
  • Render Layers
  • Shaders and texture adjustment with maps for few materials to give it more depth.

There is also a Nuke Node Network diagram attached to the gallery to have a deeper understanding on my render layers used.
