MAYA & AFTER EFFECTS
According to the storyboard, the music video begins an isolated room. I wanted to gain the idea of isolation so I didn’t want to simply film him in a house it didn’t have the ideal quality I was looking for. So I decided to create the room which gives me the opportunity to create the atmosphere that I’m looking to gain the song itself.
I’ve learnt a great deal about different types of express media and its uses and with my understandings and skills developed in the past two years, I decided to use the chance to use them all at once.
I firstly decided to create the room using Autodesk Maya which took me two days to finish the modelling.
Here is some rendered examples:

Day 2:
My plan was to composite 3D models with capture footage making it more interactive as well as given it a cinematic experience towards it. However, even though it could have been an interesting idea, but due to the time that I had left I felt it would take a lot of time to get it all process, especially trying to track/make the actor to sit exactly on the chair to make it really realistic. Also I felt that my understanding of the software still needed more effort so I thought it was best to stick with what I know rather what I don’t. But I hope when I have another opportunity and time I’ll have the chance to experiment with challenges and ideas with the software’s.
To save time, I decided to create the room in after effects which make things easier and at the same time it’s giving me a chance to experiment further with the software which I’m really enjoying.
Here is the final production of the room that will be used in music video:
