Das Leuchten ▪ City Previz


Kuhfo Logo
city As was the case with the K-17 helicopter, I imagined the corporate headquarters being a megalomanical representation of the corporation's angel shaped insignia towering above the city center. If you own a nation, why not? The 3d cityscape served two purposes: It was used for the screen display animations of Eva and her henchmen at GNOSIS. The 3d city was then built moderately more detailed to be the basis for some of the matte paintings and extensions in the movie.
 
 
 
previz Previz was very important to get everyone of the creative team, namely director, d.o.p., set designer and vfx guy on the same page regarding the universe we would try to create. Previz was made in Maya with simple 3d geometry. For mood boards this was then painted over for more detail in Photoshop. The 3d model of the personal bunker BS-2016 was first designed with simple shapes. This model went to the set designer who changed some angles so that it was easier to build the real entry door prop. The model then underwent further refinement to be used in the stylised TV ad featured at the beginning of the film.
