NIKE Baseball

Today I started out messing around in Maya again. Herman came over and showed me a way he figured out for doing the camera move we were having problems with the day before.

Ben, the other creative director, had me get some reference for the TGIF commercial they were doing. I was supposed to collect photos of roads winding off into the desert.









Later on in the day I went up to talk with Alex about this project he wanted me to start working on. They had created a commercial for Nike Baseball, but the client ended up not liking the first version, so they had to create a new one. The orginal idea was a baseball player swinging a bat, but you only see his helmet, cap, shoes and bat. The rest of him is made up of these morphing blobs.

Alex wanted me to create new elements of particles that looked more organic. I was to research ways to integrate the processing into a 3D enviornment like in maya.
