Hello readers,
I have
often spoken about the motivations behind producing a piece
of digital art and posed the question of what drives you at the very start of a
project. Working for a company that prides itself on the strength of
narrative within its designs, understanding the importance of conceptual
thinking is one of the areas I have really been pushing myself to develop. I have
really learned that it is essential to always try to have this deeper
meaning behind my creations in order to drive my concepts to
become truly original.
Today I bring
you a piece of artwork I found on 3dtotal by a digital artist Alberto Trujillo. This visual was
created for his son's birthday. His son was too young to appreciate the effort,
complexity and energy that went into creating this piece at the time but hopes
that it will be appreciated one day!

The
motivation that Albert Trujillo used to fuel this piece came
from dreams of waking up in his bedroom as a child and seeing that it had miraculously
come to life. I feel he has really captured this child-like
wonder and emotion in the image he has produced. The assets that have been
modeled were selected specifically to capture and portray the excitement and
wonder of a child's imagination.
The
models in this scene were created using various different software, with the majority of
them being created using Zbrush. This included the trees, characters
and a lot of the scene assets. The final composition was compiled in Nuke.
Albert
Trujillo really managed to make this scene feel magical. Particularly through
the use of lighting and depth. The artist creates an empathy
within the image by showing the child being surrounded by his favorite toys which are presented as his friends.
I think most of us would be able to relate to this, as we all found friendship in
our favorite toys growing up.
Visuals
like this reveal more and more details the longer you look at them,
highlighting the thought and craft that went into developing them. This is a signature of lot of
Alberto Trujillo's work.
The most
impressive part of this scene has to be the incredibly detailed model of the
child, especially the expression that has been captured on his face. Personally
I think this feeling of enchantment epitomises what
this visual is all about, and demonstrates the refined talent Trujillo
has.
I look
forward to hearing your thoughts on this image.
