The biggest takeaways from Hayayo Miyazaki’s films I’ve wanted to utilize are the atmospherics of certain areas, similar to those implemented by Hidetaka Miyazaki (no relation). I have an idea already to implement the rotting landscapes of a dying world.
The decision to create my video with CGI stemmed from a desire to capture more surreal landscapes that would be impossible to see in the real world, as well as to gain tighter control over lighting and positioning that I would not otherwise have.
The image below is a still render of one of the models being made for the video, I’d send more but this image already took me an hour to render. I imagine the final version will take much longer to render out.
I do not plan on revisiting the image filtering technique from Project 1 for this video, I have only applied it to this image here as a test.
