Unit 69, 3D Modeling
Worlds Competition.​
Purpose of this assignment
This unit aims to develop your skills in 3D modelling for computer games to the standard required to work in the computer games industry.
Scenario
3D environment artists create 3D environments for architectural walk-throughs, TV programmes, films, websites and games. The scenery created by these artists includes, for instance, buildings, vegetation and furniture, produced by computers running 3D application software. 3D environment artists are responsible for applying textures to objects and environment items such as the surfaces of walls and floors of buildings. This is a highly-skilled area of work which requires considerable knowledge and understanding of lighting, perspective, materials, colour theory and visual effects.
Competition - CubeBrush | Worlds Challenge
You will be tasked with designing/creating an environment merging the old with the new, choosing either Fantasy or Sci-fi as your dominant genre.
RULES
â–¶ Pick either Fantasy OR Sci Fi as your dominant genre
â–¶ The size and scale of your environment is up to you but should clearly incorporate new and old structures/props, in whatever ratio you prefer (up to 90/10 - example: 90% old structures, 10% new structures)
â–¶ Your environment can be mobile (large ship, floating island, etc) as long as it respects the above.
