Human Modeling Seminar

Completed for a summer seminar while attending UC Blue Ash for my associate's degree. Based upon the "Interior Modeling" course completed through Digital Tutors (now owned by Pluralsight). The goal of the seminar was to model, texture, rig, pose, and render a humanoid character in an environment. All characters and environments would then be combined into a cohesive museum environment to display each completed project. Students were tasked with writing up a backstory, culture, planet, and personality for their character and environment to justify each of their decisions. I chose to create a famous has-been celebrity living on a planet similar to and aware of our own. The planet and its people were also not to fond of James Cameron's Avatar, viewing it as a racist and simplistic view of their planet's history.
