Author:Laurent Pierlot

Skill level:Beginner

Language:English

Laurent reveals his process for creating a high resolution creature, designed by Carlos Huante, for the video-game cinematic production pipeline. The pipeline presents many challenges such as working with short deadlines, achieving a clean topology and being able to interpret a 3/4 view concept into a complex and detailed 3D model. This DVD will cover the creature modeling from low-poly modeling to high-poly detailing using 3ds Max and ZBrush. Topics include Max’s basic polygon tools, creating the base volumes and proportions, cleaning up topology, reshaping in ZBrush, and lighting and rendering a sample still with Brazil for presentation to clients and supervisors..

Laurent Pierlot is an alumnus of ESAAT in Roubaix, France and Supinfocom in Valenciennes. After finishing his student movie Baecktopur, which combined live footage mixed with 3D characters, he began working at SPARX in Vietnam as a modeling and lighting artist.
