Lighting Workshop Module #3

 In this assignment we were tasked with lighting a hero asset in a 3-point infinity wall space and again in a fitting environment. I chose to light a satellite and create a space scene with mars in the background.

Lighting Workshop Module #1

For this week we were taught how to properly set up 3-point lighting for showing off our models. 3-point lighting refers to the use of a key, rim, and fill light. Each light serves its own purpose, the key acting as the main light source illuminating the subject. The rim light serves to separate the edges of the subject and separate it from the background. The fill or bounce lighting serves to brighten up the shadows and bring clarity to the subject. The use of all three lights is known as 3-point lighting. In the colored images, each light is given its own color, red for key, green for fill, and blue for rim.

Common Art Assignment 4: Use of Basic Lighting

 In this assignment we were tasked with taking the value drawings from the previous week and implementing basic lighting and color into them.

Common Art Assignment 3: Use of Value and Contrast

 In this assignment we were tasked with taking the selected silhouettes from the previous assignment, and redrawing them with proper line art, value, and shading.

Throughout this assignment I focused on expressing the story and history of the character's Hercules and Megara whilst simultaneously leaning into the silly and stylized aspects of the Minion style.
