FXPHD 'The Machine': Modelling

During the summer I was asked by Russell Dodgeson (Head of Nuke at Framestore) and Robert Harrington (Technical Director at Framestore) to work as the only Modeller on a FXPHD MasterClass course called 'The Machine". Here are images below showing the Model I created for them. 


The Front Section was the beauty section as it was in all the shots and had to contain alot of detail. 



I thoroughly enjoyed working on this project. I am just doing the last adjustments to the back section of the engine as for the course it was not needed for it to be finished so in the time I had I concentrated on the front section. Full renders will be up in the next week showing the final completed model!

Wrath of the Titans: Modelling




During the Summer of 2011, I worked at Framestore as a modeller for The Wrath of the Titans. I worked along side Scott Eaton, where I modelled clothes and props for two of the three Cyclops characters found in the film. I also modelled some of the flying logs, the log trap and the CG Arrows found within the film.


(Above) Here is an image of the three Cyclops found in the Film. The two found on the left are the two I modelled the clothes and props for. For the Fat Cyclops we decided to not use a belt buckle so I designed the idea of bent metal hooks keeping his belt together. Below is another example of my clothes in action. I plan to get some renders out soon!
