I tried to represent the Tham & Videgard’s School of Architecture at the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm on a rainy day, when the storm is over and the sun is coming out, in order to improve my skills. I took advantage of the Challenge to try to do something that I had never done before, such as the corten material and the wet floor; also the general mood of the scene was something new in my experience. I found really useful to have a 3D model, but I also found interesting trying to improve the final result by modifying the same model, in order to make the image appear more similar to the reality; so I put in the scene objects and interior furnishings, looking at the pictures of the project. Every detail contributes to make the image appear more interesting and more similar to a real life situation.
In my opinion the most difficult part of the assignment was to reproduce the corten, so I did a quite simple material before rendering the image, and then I worked on it in post-production, in order to be quicker and more flexible in changes.
Also the reflection of the floor was not easy to do, because there was the risk to make it appear fake, but at the end I’m quite satisfied with the result, having a freelancer library and not so much experience.
