HI Tomastage, We need more info to give you sensible critique. What kind of concept are you working off? What are your goals for the project? Whats your scope and time frame for completion? What are you struggling with currently?
Oh, silly me! I am doing a asylum corridor based loosely on several different pictures. My aim was to create a corridor that has the feeling from outlast, this was a school assignment so the time frame is free right now since the assignment is done and my scope can be as large as i want it. I am struggling with the feeling of the scene and also feel like it isnt good enough, it kinda feels empty i guess.
Right now, its indeed a very empty corridor. If you want to plus it, I have a few suggestions. -break up the bowling alley look by obscuring parts of the hallway. You could do this with a few props, architectural elements, asymmetrical lighting and so forth. -push the 'asylum' theme- make sure that it reads. You could swap out that chair with a wheelchair, add in some medical props, gurneys, etc what time period was this asylum most successful? Consider adding props that harken back to that time -Outlast uses alot of yellow artificial lighting- adding some extra lighting to call out focal points would be a good idea too. -If you're having trouble with lighting in general, you can start by emulating from photos. Here's one with alot of open doors, letting natural light spill into the hallway
Are you planning on showing this hallway off at different angles? What will your final presentation involve?
Thank you for taking your time answering, a lot of good tips and pointers! I wasnt planning on showing it in different angles just a straight down shot down the corridor, so my final presentation would involve just that picture and maybe some breakdowns if i like how it turns out.
