This first week of VFX was fairly basic: we got introduced to the main project we’ll have to complete, we were given some general knowledge on a camera’s components, and then allowed to research what we wanted to do.
I did a bit of brainstorming and mind-mapping on paper, and got a few ideas, but I decided to go with art block as my final one.
It’s a bit sad as a topic, but it’s a big part of my creative life, and it could make for some interesting shots.
I took some pictures, to get some nice vibes. I went for dark, but somewhat lit areas; I’m thinking of giving a sad, but hopeful vibe to my shots. I also sketched some things inside the study room.
I downloaded Nuke (not without problems), but I honestly don’t know how to use it, and from the look of the group-chat, neither do most of my classmates. We’ll see where next week’s classes take us.
