Materials

Ive done the materials for two of the three parts im doing the dining room was done by searching for textures, darkwood for the table and chairs, carpet for the floor and wallpaper for the walls. also another material still needs to be found for the door. the next stage is to do the material for the jam jar and then insert a camera.












For the balloons scene i did the same for the ground i found a grass texture which i put on. but for the balloons themselves i created the designs in photoshop using a mixture of the rectangle tool and the smudge tool i then imported these into max and put them on the balloons. i also created a sky light so some of the surrounding area could be seen i gave it a fairly dark texture though because this scene takes place at night. the next stage is to animate them and put in cameras.




Apart from these two i still have to take apart referance photos of the nursery rhyme house to finish the material for that scene and again put in the camera.

Head done now for the group work.

i have been assigned two scenes for our group animation, the hot air balloon scene and the house scene both outside and inside, i have just finished the modeling for these as shown:



to the left is the nursery rhyme house we are including i did this by making different boxes and using the extrude tool and by manipulating the vertices. next for this i need to make the materials that will be used to make the house look more like it does in real life.








This is the scene with the hot air balloons i did this in much the same way as the house above. i also added in omni lights which give them a glow from inside which looks like the flamer is being fired. i changed the lights colour to orange and made it an ambient light but limited the reach the light had. again the next stage of this will be to create the materials.





This is the final part of the nursery rhyme house from the inside i modeled the table, chairs, jam jar and the plate with the toast in the same way described above. although to smooth the legs of the table i used the MSmooth tool so the legs smoothed out but the table top stayed as it was which wouldn't of worked using turbo smooth. Again the next stage will be to create materials for everything.
