VFX Fundamentals

For my term project, I’m working on creating a special virtual world where people can have presentations and work in unique spaces. Imagine it like a magical metaverse.
In this virtual place, I’ll be designing different spots, buildings of workstations, kind of special desks for people to use. We’ll also make beautiful displays for products, just like in a shop or museum.
Also there will be a lovely outdoor area, like a park! It’s going to be a fantastic adventure in the world of virtual spaces.

Developing a virtual metaverse where people can access creative workspaces, product displays, and even explore outdoor environments. This project aims to offer a diverse and immersive virtual experience for presentations and work, combining different settings such as workstations, product galleries and outdoor spaces.

Designing the building

Creating a platonic mesh for sample buildings

Designing the basic layouts for building model

Layout to design general environment

Thinking of references to arrange the buildings

Reference for the building covers

Working on texture paint using substance

Deciding on colour shades

This looks better as ivory shade is a new modern architecture colour. Black is used to make the grille stand out with the building as in highlighting it.

Using wooden texture for poles but I think this is too dark and I would prefer going to lighter shades as we add trees , the overall look would be anyways enhanced.
