The view of the ballroom in the Mil-Looney-Um Party 2000, before the band, the caterers and lighting engineers have set up for the big bash.THAT FLOORIf I had had to paint the floor using only traditional media, it would have been an absolute nightmare to do, especially as it was seen in long shot as well as in close-up. Fortunately, this was one of my first projects using Satori Film FX, and I was able to construct that floor using just ten floorboards, without any obvious "tiling" repeats showing. First I painted my ten individual floorboards. Using grids, I then grouped my ten boards into pseudo-randomised sub-groups, and arranged those groupings into further pseudo-randomised groups that eventually covered the whole floor. Someday, I'll write a tutorial on this method, but I'll have to decipher my hastily written scribbles first. |
