Final entry from me. A strong sunlight scene with a bit fog.
A presentation day for the students where they showcase their 3 pavilions they made during there last weeks in school beforce summer vacation starts and the semester ends.
Sent the PDF already before deadline so here is the one again, rendered in 5k with Vray GPU.
Good job everyone, really nice snow renderings you are showcasing!
Best!

After a few days of trial and error I finally could fix my sight, I chose to show the dialogue and the relationship between the historical environment and the new building through a camera placed on the north street of the institute, is one of the rare angles of view that presents the two new and historical contexts with more or less the same size, and moreover in a way that will allow me to focus onthe materials.the second step was to think on the animation of my scene, being an architect by training I remember the highlights of my years of study and I particularly remember school when we work with my friends over night to finish a job in time , so I choose an evening atmosphere for my scenne what This will help to work the interior lighting of the building, trying to show the atmosphere of a overnight work in an architecture school.the next step will be to work the materials based on reference images and to test to be as faithful as possible to reality, the only thing that I choose to reinterpret will be the street separating the two historical and new contexts and which is a strong element of my composition trying to mark the transition between the two architectures through the materials of the ground.Finally I would try to give a certain atmosphere to my scene, an atmosphere that reminds me of the night walks in the alleys of the Gothic Quarter in Barcelona or in the historic streets of Firenze
I started to read about the creators of the building, the architects, what was their idea and concept, and i remembered the time when i was still student in architecture, my professor was always insisting about the connexion between the exterior and the interior of any construction.
And because of my first impression about this one, about the empty space surrounding it, i started to do some research to find the best way to complement what was in my opinion missing.
How to make my idea fit in the project, i started by making the iglou like a spot for the student to gather in, talk, Meat, Eat, …
After that i made the green spaces for tree’s, arbust, ..some bench’s, Lampost’s and sconce’s ( from the library) in the final with all put together, i decided to go with night vue, i added some light’s and started to twick the settings for the final rendering.
I could do better than this one, time is sketchy, if I had to do something differently, it would be taking the time to manage my textures, lightning, and render settings, but I think I would keep the concept.
I was looking for similar textures to compare to the real building. Then I tried to create the reflection on the street. I added a fall off layer to the reflection layer to allow the water mirror to appear at different angles.
It was difficult to control the size of the water in the paving stone. It was also a challenge to get the rain in the windows, which makes the windows misty.
I don’t have so much time that works for this project. So it’s such a pity I don’t add people in the view. Maybe making the people in the picture can create more exciting atmosphere.
It was a great challenge and I really enjoyed this experience.
Hope you like it and good luck to everyone.
