Description |
The following 3d illustration showcases a personal project I have been working on for some time. It has been sitting on a hard drive for about 4.5 years when I decided to revisit and finalize the design. The project initially began like all others, a study in new forms/shapes/ideas and slowly evolved into an image.
The initial concept for this image was based on a panopticon, but quickly morphed into a small area within a
possible larger structure. As I was thinking of a panopticon, I looked into the ideas of observation and voyeurism. This led me to in internal aperture mechanism for an SLR camera.
The camera aperture became the driving force of the design. I did not stay too defined by it, but used it to build an environment in which the word aperture could take on new meanings.
| Final Image
Aperture as a conceptual rendering was mostly created using 3ds Max. A fair amount of post-production was done; mostly for color correction, atmosphere, and the scale figure.
The image began by exploring broad ideas of mechanics, enclosure, and voyeurism while playing with the overall scale of specific items.
