Image planes in Quill and Eros

Image
I've positioned images into the 3D VR space, as a quick way to rough out 3D space including depth and height. This gives an instant colour script of the choices of colours I'm planning on using. The next step will involve roughing out the spaces in a rough drawn style. First off was Eros, as an iconic reference for Piccadilly Circus.... Interesting to see Eros compared to the animated tree created recently....and how the style can begin to evolve

Creating a visual mood board in Quill

Image
 Today's test incorporated a quick mock up of a wire house, made from neon tubing, surrounded by a selection of mood board references. I realised that my working method has evolved from sketch book, to 2D pdfs of digital reference image boards, to now importing those reference images into Quill in a fully immersive 3D environment; with full use of height, width and depth. Starting with something recognisable, in this case a small wire house, I am considering what the viewer may see initially once in the environment. I also imported the animated tree, created a couple of weeks ago and watched the leaves float vertically up toward the portholes above. Reference images imported to see which styles work in VR and which don't. Block, bold colours are emotive, with a strong emphasis on light, vivid colour and shadow.
