Thirsty?

February 21, 2007

"Thirsy?" was done for a small one-week compositing challenge in the Danish 3D community at 3dmaxer.dk and won.

Background plate.

In the contest you were provided with a photo to use as background plate to put anything you would like into. My eyes caught the water hose and a cactus in the back that looked somewhat human. From this, the idea of a desperate thirsty cactus emerged.

I rendered out different passes from Blender that I composited and retouched a bit in Photoshop. Before putting the 3D into the plate I had retouched the original photo, removing all flowers and giving the whole thing a more worn out appearance to make the setting look like it was enduring a drought.
