Zoltan Kovacs - WIP

zoli · May 4th, 2007

Hi everyone! What a great honour to take part in this competition. I've looked at your submission images a hundred times, they entralled me. I guess we're going to have a great time together and am sure that this challange will tear us from our everyday life. Have fun, good luck!
Here are my first pictures. I'm trying to find the proper position of "my sun" right now. What do you think about the POV? (remember I'm on the deck

)

Hi Zoli,

I like the 1st image out of the 3 for pov. And with respect to the sun position, I wonder if you would try the sun light coming from the opposite side, ie, coming from the right and behind the camera, you might get more shadow casted from the building structures onto the foreground and itself. Right now, 80% of the building is lit directly from the sun, and so I feel that there is a lose in the sense of mystery and depth to the building.

Can try other camera angles and light to project light upon the angle, do not let that these 竿 that set up partitions the appearance

Hi Zoltan,

Overall, the first image looks better to me. The sun intensity is too high right now so it is hard to tell which sun position would work better for your composition. I am looking forward to see the next update.

Hi

I have problem from framing this building also.
Third small picture pleases to me with excellent effects of light reflexion.
I have you such hint yet to lower the water-level a bit in order to to show the a bit slopes of lake.
And one more. It would be succulently to see it with eyes of the soldier on action. In FPP games usually lets 70-75 FOV.

See You

Actually if you put the sun behind the camera you don't get any shadows casted and loose statuesqueness of the building. Or maybe I don't get right what you meant to say?!

Maybe if you rotate the sun so its shines from the left of the camera. Adding a couple of gobos might do some wonders to the composition too.

Looking forward for the next installment

Behind AND to the right hand side. Not directly behind. I was just thinking you can investigate the sun coming from the opposite side, so the other side of the building is in shade and has shadows casting onto the foreground.
