Laura Assem Final Scene
 Wish you were here... 
Inspiration

My inspiration for this scene really came from finals week, or lack of wanting to deal with finals week. I got the idea of creating a secluded townhouse, not a farm, from my boyfriend’s house. It’s peaceful, and secluded, and by including a motorcycle it actually reminds me of his cabin. The technical problems I had when working on this scene were basically around adding the sky tracer, which is only because the horizon line caused a black border between the sky and the ground. Although by alternating the perspective of the camera, I was able to remove the appearance of the line, I noticed that also stopped me from getting renders I wanted. I also really like the detail I was able to add to the house within the scene, because I added wood borders to the walls, and finally was able to figure out anti-aliasing so that allowed the wood to appear smooth. In conclusion, I really liked making this scene, it was peaceful for me to create, and actually helped take my mind off of finals week.

Problems and Solutions

My biggest problem was figuring out the camera angle to achieve a render that wouldn’t include a black line from the horizon. Although I found Sky-Tracer easy to use and understandable, it still included a black line which was difficult to get rid of.
