Bee Movie Renderings

Bee City by Zhaoping Wai

Ok, so I am not actually recommending anyone watches Bee Movie, it is as poor as the title suggests (a typical DreamWorks wanna-b-pixar movie). But this article at cgsociety is a great inspection of the visual design process, from drawing to rendering, which is pretty good even if it is let down by the plot.

It also has some great imagery, like the Bee City (pictured) by Zhaoping Wai.

MotionPortrait

MotionPortrait

Interesting idea, the MotionPortrait is a 3D face animation which can be constructed using a 3d mesh and a bunch of images.

When combined they produce something really rather creepy

Lightness of Being

Equanimous 1 by Chris Levine

3d light portraits of the Queen photographed by Chris Levine, also famous for his experimental work with Massive Attack.

His work often utilises technology and the cross fertilisation of technique and talent by way of collaborative projects. He was for sometime involved in the design and production of holographic images and through this work developed a good working understanding of the laser – the purest form of light available to man.
