Selection of my personal computer-generated art projects mainly made with Blender ☆(>ᴗ•) # Jewelry **Goal**: Develop concepts of jewelry pieces through 3D modeling and animation using the elements of the Pita brand <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RIlFvusTNJs?autoplay=1&loop=1&playlist=RIlFvusTNJs&rel=0" width="100%" height="auto" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="max-width: 100%;aspect-ratio: 21 / 9;"></iframe> # Weapons **Goal:** Design, 3D model, texture and animate a scythe and a sword following a specific aesthetic <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/4DKNDPQKtSE?autoplay=1&loop=1&playlist=4DKNDPQKtSE&rel=0" width="100%" height="auto" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="max-width: 100%;aspect-ratio: 21 / 9;"></iframe> # Surreal Photo Manipulation **Goal:** Use visual effects techniques to combine real photographs with digital 3D models into visually coherent surreal scenes ![[surreal_photo_manipulation.jpg]] _*base photos taken by (unknown photographer), Vencislav Sharkov and Luke respectively_ # Characters **Goal:** Play with character design and 3D model, texture, rig and animate such characters in order to showcase my own design and my own version for one of my favorite fictional characters (Sakuragi Hanamichi from Slam Dunk) These animations are accompanied by YouTube videos exploring the [creation process](https://youtu.be/zw47fFCfyHE?si=f3_v7xtiLWcYj-s6) and [cloth simulation](https://youtu.be/pxGxQQUfh5I?si=f9_VbuTptmrXWI8n) <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/jJeeGvzXXnU?autoplay=1&loop=1&playlist=jJeeGvzXXnU&rel=0" width="100%" height="auto" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="max-width: 100%;aspect-ratio: 21 / 9;"></iframe> # Lo-fi Animations **Goal:** Translate concepts from some of my favorite fiction and mix them with the main character using a hyper-stylized retro pixelated look, simulating a 2D look from a 3D environment <iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/eiHE3PjS5KM?autoplay=1&loop=1&playlist=eiHE3PjS5KM&rel=0" width="100%" height="auto" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen style="max-width: 100%;aspect-ratio: 21 / 9;"></iframe> _*Inspired by FLCL, Berserk and Super Mario 64 respectively_ # Biblically Accurate **Goal:** Create eye-catching visual pieces with a center-focused composition based around the main character in scenarios where they interact with different abstract objects After making these public, people have asked if I was inspired by biblically accurate angels (except the Akira motorcycle one, I guess), which honestly wasn't part of my original idea, but it's fun so that's now the narrative line that connects them ![[biblically_accurate.jpg]]
