TITLE: Image in a Real World NAME: Geoffroy Grimm COUNTRY: France EMAIL: grimmg@hotmail.com WEBPAGE: Soon !! TOPIC: Imaginary World COPYRIGHT: I SUBMIT TO THE STANDARD RAYTRACING COMPETITION COPYRIGHT. JPGFILE: maginary.jpg RENDERER USED: Truespace TOOLS USED: Truespace, Psp, Poser (!), RENDER TIME: 10' HARDWARE USED: K6 200 128Mo IMAGE DESCRIPTION: The science fiction use the Corridor as a door between different World. Greg Bear's Meteorite (Eon), Neal Stephenson's Metavers (Snow Crash) use this idea, Stargate... So i decided to represent the topic with this symbol. A corridor where an entity pass through. A door made by scientist to travel in the entire universe using Einstein theories. The dream of the human, travel without moving !! (Dune...) DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I used a specificity of the truespace marble texture to make the flash o lightining. (I don't know if we can do that with other render) it's to use a very turbulent marble with one of the two color transparent. (So it's possible to animate the lightning !) I made two sphere with two different texture of this type. the entity use a different version of this texture. The wall of the laboratory was made with Paint Shop Pro. Some rectangle with different gray and with emboss filter... After i draw some red to simulate the rust. It's very impressive how we can make a texture ith simple tools !!! Yes, i know, i used Poser !! And then. That's all. There is no difficult to produce this scene. I think
