Reflection on efficient group project.
For the efficient group project, I was assigned to make a research making a moodboard so other members can easily and quickly get idea for pre-production process. The moodboard not just only benefited myself also enabled our team member Azam to build his scene quickly.
The second task I was assigned to develop the hotel scenes and virtual bank scene for other member to use. The hotel scene included hotel lobby, stair, corridor and room. I started from searching some hotel images on website then I ended up with a classic style. I started from lobby then quick duplicated some assets such as paintings, walls, plants, tables and also sofa to create corridor and room scenes. The most challenged section for those scene were lighting and rendering.
There were various issue caused when I did rendering. The render result did not match what it presented on my screen or just black. In order to deal with the render issue I did a few research on website and also asked for help from our facilitator, Steve, he gave me a nice suggestion and solution for solving this problem. I definitely learned a lot for making those environments.
The third task I had done was animation in hotel lobby. I was making animation by Cat walk cycle. However the walk cycle I made was awkward and unnatural. I felt that maybe I could just key the animation by myself would be easier. Besides, what else for this project I made was putting the glow sign on the wall of lobby. The sign was with the glow effect and transitioned in colour from pink to blue.
To sum up, I was so happy and appreciated that my team members were always willing to help each other and passionate on our project. The result ended up nice quality and better than we thought. What I can improve and explore more are definitely the lighting and rendering .I hope I could struggle less with any possible rendering issue in the future.
