2005 Spring ->3D Computer Modeling ->Galleries ->Erik Nichols Erik Nichols   Final Scene   The Show is About to Begin . . .   Inspiration I wanted to do a scene that had to do with music.  I decided to create a stage with a guitar and an amplifier on it.  I chose the camera angle from behind looking out towards the audience, because this allowed me to create a realistic scene while only having to model the guitar and amp.  Also, I felt this perspective would make a more interesting scene, as apposed to the typical shot from in front of the stage.  Because there were only two objects in my scene I was able to spend a long time modeling them in detail.
