Animation & 3d Set Modeling
Although I consider myself as a 3d generalist with experience in 3d modeling, animation, texture painting and rendering, my core interest lie in the area of digital set-extension and 3d set modeling, which also includes production design. All three films "The Picture Show", "The Office Machine" and "Filmdisc" were fictive advertising films playing in the 60s. The idea was to incorporate science fiction with nostalgia. "Just a Roboter" was part of an animation study. "The Distillery" was produced to test and show the capabilities of "Coffeetracer" a ray tracing system developed by David Gerhard and me, featuring distributed ray tracing techniques such as Ambient Occlusion, Soft Shadows and Path Tracing (used for Global Illumination effects) and Caustics.Projects
