  Zbrush Artist - Freelance

  Taylor James

  June 2017 - July 2017

  Shoreditch, london

  At Taylor James I was a 3d modeller who created 4 designs for an advertising campaign run by Carlsberg. In honour of celebrating Carlsberg's 170th Anniversary we had to create a set of 10K stills showcasing the taste and social aspects of their brand.
  
  To create the models I began by blocking out the scenes in Maya before bringing them into Zbrush to add further details. Whilst in Zbrush I had to make sure the foam looked organic to make it appear as if the people and barely leaves were made entirely of foam and create the illusion they were one object. To do this, I sculpted each element separately before combining them together to smooth out any intersecting points. This helped create a natural transition between the foam and objects which made it seem like the base of each object was built up from a foam of bubbles.
  
  Please see the link below to view the breakdown and final renders.
