This week, we had to show Serra our progress with the term project and get a review on what we had done so far.
My Concept:
A temple inside the caves holding the Natraja Murti, the God of Dance, with dance animations that symbolise cosmic movement and energy. The four elements of nature – Earth, Fire, Water and Air are symbolised through foliage, dynamic lighting and other such actors.
I started by designing the temple structure but making sure it looks traditional and old. I added multiple stone blocks and pavements to see what fits the scene perfectly.
I started adding boulders and rocks to form the cave structure around the statue and added the side wall assets that were taken from Fab and CG Trader.
I then added railings to the side of the main path turning it into a bridge.
In my review, Serra told me to finalise shots in cine camera actor first to see how long the video will be and will help me decide the animation for my male character and set a correct timeline. She also told me watch a few references of dance videos and films to help me in the shots.
