- Originally, I had intended to create a sun-soaked, nostalgic ode to Family Holidays, told through snapshots. Then I imported the twinmotion posed humans and realised that they looked horrific. So I went where I was led
This was mostly a technical study in to how to pull apart existing lighting, push it to more stylised extremes and also a few little fun asides with the modeling tools. The most ‘pushing’ out of my comfort zone was in to the post process material and adding grain, projector vignettes and heavy colour correction - in the end I even animated my end title card fading in using the post process material so I could get it over my scene.
Really glad I pushed through the initial “oh man, everything looks horrible” phase to where it’s ended up, it’s been a lot of fun and I hope some of you get a bit of a thrill from the creepy mannequins.
