Investigation Board

Investigation Board

To continue on with the project I got some feedback from peers and tutors on what I can add to the scene to improve it, such as assets and composition. In response it was suggested that I fill up the empty space of the walls and floor. From this I had the idea of creating an investigation board made from newspaper articles and photographs. To start this piece I collected a variety of relevant German WW2 images such as newspaper articles, Nazi photographs, Documents and a map of central berlin during the war. To create this asset I will use a x2048 UV scale.

 Process

Once I had enough images to use for the investigation board I took them into Photoshop and arranged them in a way that I thought worked well. Once the images were set out I exported it to Maya where I traced it to create the mesh for the individual pieces of paper. I also added some folded corners in geometry try and make the pieces stand out from each other more. Once unwrapped I took the mesh into Photoshop to make the paper elements and made the remaining back board and components in Substance Painter.
