UNIVERSITY BLUES - PERSONAL EXPLORATION
This personal project explored product look development using the Air Jordan Retro University Blues as the subject. For the style frame exploration, I wanted to build a believable landscape with realistic grass and experiment with fun way of framing the subject through animation.
I built the scene and grass landscape with Cinema 4D’s Matrix Scatter and asset browser models to create a natural environment. The project also served as valuable lighting practice.

ANIMATION TESTS
ROLE
For this animation exploration, I leaned into experimentation and had some fun pushing the technical side of my workflow. I applied noise to the geometry and used fields to animate a radial ripple effect, treating the project as both a playground for learning new techniques and an opportunity to create something that looked cool!

Here’s an inside look at my process and a peek into how I achieved the landscape using instancing and matrix scatter in Cinema 4D.
