MODEL / TEXTURE / LIGHT / RENDER

(Click images to see larger)

• These images were a collaborative effort between Photographer Ben Redgrove, Matt Painter, Chris Roome and I, at Happy Finish.

• Aim of the project was to create a photo-realistic environment for Ben to place his photographed models into.

• TWA Terminal at the JFK International airport in New York was the chosen environment. The time period setting of the representation was the 1960's.

• My role was to research the terminal plans, archive photos and the internet; and to build a rough version of the terminal itself. I later contributed further to the project by modelling various props for the scenes.

• Photography by Ben Redgrove. (The only photographic elements in both images are the Models and Suitcases).

• The final modelling (except for several props by me), lighting and rendering was done by Matt Painter.

• Retouching by Chris Roome (Happy Finish).

• The images were featured in an editorial in Creative Review Magazine – June 2009
