“The Bittersweet” – Log Five

This Week I have focused in the creation of the First scene, for this scene I wanted to create something similar to what Mac Cauley did in  The Night Cafe – An Immersive VR Tribute to Vincent van Gogh.

However  in our conversation I realised that he was working with 3D painting techniques  not available to me, in where you can paint with a brush over the 3d object just like in real life.

And investigating I found a way to get around this with a Photoshop Plug-in, but was too long to implement so in order to save time I am using 3d  models  with “Impressionist” style textures (to emulate  how people within the autisic spectrum perceive the environment around them making it so to be more stimulating for them than human-human interaction wich is the whole point of this scene).

I have implemente 2 out of 3 animations in my scene, and the week after I will  be implementing the gestures to go from animation to animation withing the scene.
