COMPUTER GENERATED IMAGES

​Picture these as digital creations, born not from a human hand, but from computer programs using specialized software to generate a range of visuals, from simple shapes to complex, detailed scenarios.

Audi A5

Under the sharp blue sky, performance meets elegance.
Every curve of the body is sculpted for speed and presence.
Details whisper craftsmanship, from the gleaming grille to the polished rims.
This is more than a machine, it’s a statement of refined power.
You don't just show up, you arrive.

RETROSPECTIVE

This render demonstrates the speed, flexibility, and precision that CGI brings to product visualization. In just 2.5 hours, I was able to produce this image using CGI. This is possible without the extra costs, scheduling challenges, or physical constraints of a traditional photoshoot. For your business, this means faster turnaround times, scalable content production, and the ability to iterate on designs or marketing materials instantly, ensuring your visuals are always aligned with your goals and timelines.

SPACE NEXT - IMAX FILM

A mammoth industrial spaceship lays starkly against the backdrop of space. Smaller drones hustle between the ship and a nearby mining asteroid, carrying the final shipments of ore and gas. The anticipation of the spaceship's journey back home for processing is palpable, showcasing humanity's impressive space mining capabilities as we reach further out into the stars.

RETROSPECTIVE

Despite the flexibility to design and create assets using any software I was comfortable with, it was crucial to ensure the final output was configured in Lightwave. This precise setup was imperative for seamless transition to the next artist, who could then animate it perfectly for the film.

THE CABIN

A solitary wooden cabin stands resilient in a vast, dry landscape. The terrain is a stretch of arid soil dotted with hardy shrubs, with distant gentle hills casting a protective backdrop. As the setting sun bathes the scene in hues of orange, purple, and blue, it accentuates the cabin's isolation amidst the harsh yet beautiful wilderness.

RETROSPECTIVE

In this rendering and lighting internet challenge, I was provided with a scene populated with diverse assets. It was up to me to exercise my creativity and uniquely position these elements, thereby transforming the given scene into a distinct composition that tells a story which provided a fun challenge. 

CLOTH SIMULATION

Step into an infinite dance of design and motion in this looping video. Gold lines race across a piece of fabric, their shimmer punctuated shifting rectangles. The cloth breathes with each loop, making the design come alive in a spectacle that keeps you hooked.

RETROSPECTIVE

The goal of this project was to create both a texture and an animation that was seamless. This presented a challenge to me but in the end was well worth it in the end. Moving forward I would like to dive deeper into what Pose Morph can do in Cinema 4D.
