A Production Process Sharing Of The 3D Works "Redemption" By Arnold For Maya
I am very happy to share with you the production process of the work of Redemption. I have shown a way of thinking and process of making this work. And I also learned something new from the project, I hope everyone can learn something from it. The software used in this work is Maya, Zbrush, Marvelousdesigner, SubstancePainter. Collection of materials Collecting the information you need is a very important part of the project before it is started. This is a very important part. I have been collecting enough information before I start the next step. But some of my friends, they will look for reference materials while making this way, it will take more time and effort, and the effect is not very good. I think that while doing the reference, it is better to take a day or two to collect and classify the required materials, so that you can also collect your own database.
Production
1. Composition
The composition of the work is very important, directly affecting the final effect. I use a relatively small composition of the work of "Redemption", which is very interesting in the composition.
2. Model
At the beginning of the production, I will quickly build a simple model, not too detailed, all models are as simple as possible, the sooner the better. This stage of production I try to control in one day. At this stage, I need to complete the simple and fast, then determine the angle of the camera and arrange the lights.
3. High poly workflow
The high poly workflow phase is a very important part. Whether it is game production or film and television model production, the high poly workflow stage is very important. After the large shape and the composition of the screen are determined, I will start from the main body of the character and proceed progressively according to the composition and the primary and secondary relationship. According to the principle of subject, local, subject. Some common brushes and some post-production texture aids used by individuals as follow,
4. Texture
I used the more popular PBR process in drawing the texture. Substancepainter is the most common drawing software for this type of texture drawing. The character face and skin use Mari. Character skin replacement, skin color is made in Mari, Mari is a very powerful software.
5. Render and post-synthesis
This work uses the Anorld for Maya, and the entire rendering process takes about 4 days. In addition, a separate AOV layer is rendered to facilitate further modification of the color and scene atmosphere in the PS.
The above is the whole process of the project of "Redemption", I will introduce it to you here. I also found some deficiencies in the production, I hope that my production can give you new ideas, we can all learn new things in the project.
