Exhibition + Catalogue Designs

Client project is finally finished. I just finished my exhibition and catalogue designs.
Just want to upload some stuff as I havent been upload for ages.
Here is my catalogue Image:


These five images will be show on the web.



Feel Free to comment.

Artefact 6 - 3D model

I have created a landscape in 3ds max, and going to model a wolf, so it looks similar to the scale model I have made before, and I am going to compare how realistic are both of them by create a short video clip.

Artefact 5

The techniques I have used in the videos above, which shows the 3d model can be filmed in different angles, and also even a clay model can be animate by using stop motion technique. If I've using more frames for the stop motion, the animation would become more smoothly.

Artefact 5- Stop motion

I was thinking to do another green screen technique, but because the equipments all lent out so I have decided to use different method to create same effect.

Here is my two experiments:

First one is using video camera to film the environment I have model and the wolf to create a realistic scene.




Secondly, I have used a stop motion technique, which can create the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a continuous sequence, and that could make a physically object appear to move on its own.

Client Project - Classroom

Classroom 1


Classroom 2

Reminder - Client project

All batches have been completed, the coming weeks I need to produce the demonstration part.

§ Demonstrate single items of furniture at a time

§ Be suitable for use with all furniture items produced

§ Take no longer than 20 seconds for each item

§ Give the client a good impression of the furniture item

§ Uphold the company image as innovative and creative

§ Be simple to use

§ Be suitable for use on a modern laptop

Artefact - Model

Method used - - > handmade mountain model and wolf model combine together by using green/ blue screen technique.

Work process below -










Final outcome:

Artefact 3- matte painting

This is my mattepainting video. There is another example of digital matte painting.
The question is - How many people could recognise the original matte painting and digital matte painting.

Batch 3!!

Item 1


Item 2& 3

Batch 2 - Completed!

The images above, is the item that I need to produce for my client, which are table and chair and then the computer table.

The completed version of models

Batch 1 - Completed!

These are improved version.

Artefact 3 - Original Matte painting

I have used acrylics to paint on glass.

I was planning to do city site, but then I recognised I run out of time, so I decided to do a landscape one with unrealistic sky.

Here is my painting. Tomorrow I will do the filming part. Hopefully, will upload everything by Friday.

Artefact 3- Digital Matte Painting

For my third artefact, Ive decided to do a digital matte painting.

A matte painting is a painted representation of a landscape, set, or distant location that allows filmmakers to create the illusion of an environment that would otherwise be too expensive or impossible to build or visit.

Compare the digital matte painting and the original matte painting.

Traditionally, matte paintings were made by artists using paints or pastels on large sheets of glass for integrating with the live-action footage. The first known matte painting shot was made in 1907 by Norman Dawn (ASC)

By the mid-1980s, advancements in computer graphics programs allowed matte painters to work in the digital realm.
The first digital matte shot was created by painter Chris Evans in 1985 for Young Sherlock Holmes for a scene featuring a computer-graphics (CG) animation of a knight leaping from a stained-glass window. Evans first painted the window in acrylics, then scanned the painting into LucasFilm’s Pixar system for further digital manipulation. The computer animation (another first) blended perfectly with the digital matte, something a traditional matte painting could not have accomplished.

Throughout the 1990s, traditional matte paintings were still in use, but more often in conjunction with digital compositing.

Here is my experiment on Digital Matte Painting-









These two are the original photographs from internet.

This is the final outcome :

Matte Painting

I have been searching information on matte painting. and here is the youtube link you may find it interesting.

Artefact 2- Updated!

First experiment wasnt too relevant on this research, so I have decided to create some 3d objects with lighting and showing how important with shadow and without a shadow on the object.

I have created a lamp , glass with water and a key. I have created a lamp because I want to add spot lights into the scene, so the light directly point at the object, that could help me to get the effect I want.

I have saved as an image, and quickly ask 20 people to spot out which image is most realistic to them and why.










All 20 people are saying the image have shadow looks the most realistic.
They said the second reason of realistic is the material affect the overall viewing.

The next artefact I will carry out a short movie clip include everything I have learned in previous artefacts.
