Thoughtful life: Character models

I worked as the Character Modeler for the short 3D animated film, "Thoughtful Life" directed by Jaewook Kim.

"Thoughtful Life" is a story that follows the day to day life of a young schoolgirl as she struggles with the pressure of high school performance and grades.

For this short film I specifically worked on modeling the hair of the main character, Jisu, along with a few revisions to the rest of the mesh and built the mother character from the ground up.  All concept artwork was created by Shenna Mae Padayao.

Programs used: zBrush, Autodesk Maya, Topogun, UVLayout

I worked on mainly the hair and a few revisions for this character model. I provided uv maps, a retopologized mesh, and provided preliminary texture map and render insights using mental ray.

Programs used: Autodesk Maya, ZBrush, UV Layout, Topogun, Photoshop

This is the Mother character for the film. I was given concept artwork of her (featured right) and proceeded to model, retopologize, uv map, and provide preliminary texture insight.
