Guinea Pig Quad Mech

I wanted to learn composting to video.
This mech was supposed to be placed in different scenarios/environments, but I'm bored with it already.
A police anti riot mech.

My first forray into HDR panorama creation for image based lighting (IBL).
BG plate video shot with a camcorder.

Before I moved on to another personal project, I decided to try and improve it, based on some feedback from a friend that does VFX.
I also shot a single photo back plate with my DSLR, and it had a much more dynamic, wider angle.
Not as flat as the camcorder footage.

The only thing I didn't create are the sound effects.

The place in the Video is the dance floor of Vic-Hum Club.

One of my first HDR panoramas, so it wasn't full spherical 360 degrees, but it worked for image based lighting and accurate reflections.

I still have the model...Might even upload it here.

The final revisit before moving on to another project. Shooting with my DSLR instead of camcorder gave a wider angle, and a much more dynamic shot.

Started with Alchemy Sketches to find an interesting silhouette.
