Degree Project evaluation

I think the initial goal of my Restart project has been basically achieved.

According to the concept, it’s all implemented according to the previous idea. I referenced from all kinds of works about cyberpunk style, integrated high-tech elements and cyborg characters, and established a cyberpunk city with Chinese style. The modelling of several ancient Chinese buildings have achieved the expected results, and also realized the architectural conception of combining ancient Chinese style with modern architecture; for the interior construction of the main scene (the bar), the expected combination of scientific and technological elements and ancient buildings are realized, it’s done well; as for the character, I referenced from the character setting of games(Cyberpunk 2077) and sci-fi movies, plus the character image of ancient China, and realized a Cyborg modelling. I think I built it well. Besides, I spent a lot of time on character modelling, from character shape to character rigging, clothing construction to character action simulation and clothing dynamic simulation. So far, I have a whole understanding of character modelling; But I still don't think the layout of the city is perfect, it did not fully achieve the city effect I expected. I still need more high-tech building types in the model, and I think the urban construction of cyberpunk style needs to be improved; In terms of material, I tried the mixed material of octane render in this project to be as close as possible to the real performance material. Some of the materials I have achieved are close to the real effect, but there are still some (ground, wood, etc.) still can't do very well; In terms of lighting, I don't think it's done very well, the neon effect of cyberpunk can be enhanced, the light inside the room can be changed better as well; I found that the rendering effect was not adjusted well, some of which had obvious noise; In terms of lens usage, I think it needs to be improved, some lens application and connection are not very natural. In addition, this project was originally set to make some visual effect by using Adobe Effect, but in the end, it was not realized due to time reasons, so it was completely changed to be produced in C4D.

 

According to the story theme, I finally realized the original idea, but also made some adjustments according to the production situation and the possibility of implementation. In terms of music, I searched for music and sound effects on the internet and synthesized them according to the animation.
