Challenge 01 – Planets
This is an exercise from Module 1 of the Professional 3D Training Course with Blender from the Revolution School. The proposed challenge is to create an image to promote the new observational astronomy course that will take place at the Campinas Planetarium. The fictional client requests an artwork that represents a realistic view of space.
To accomplish this objective, it is necessary to create a realistic scene that conveys the sensation of being in outer space. It is important to consider the correct perspective and appropriate scale of the planets and objects that compose the image.
In addition, it is necessary to use lighting techniques that reproduce the brightness of the stars and planets, as well as the light emitted by the galaxy. The final result should be an impressive and attractive image that grabs the attention of the public and conveys the desired message from the client.
With this exercise, students will have the opportunity to apply the knowledge acquired in Module 1 of the course in a realistic and challenging situation. It will be an excellent opportunity to learn new modeling, texturing, lighting, and rendering techniques, and to develop important skills for a career in 3D.
