Cottonwood - Rockfall
(Model - Texture - Ecom Renders - Env & Lookdev - Rigging - Tyflow Simulation - 3D Animation - Post)
The idea was to create a short 10sec video. Displaying the rugged built & raw beauty of the shoe by cinematic action sequence taking place on a rough rocky environment.


The model was created with nicely detailed textures for high resolution renders and animation closeups. Started by following Image references from multiple angles. Texture for parts such as midsole, collar, nose & laces were created from custom tile-able patterns. Main leather was made with a combination of multiple textures merged and smoothly masked to match the original beauty. Software used in the process were max, topogun, substance painter & octane.
With the help of Cryptomatte & Zdepth passes, additional background elements and fog depth was added, further enhancing the final output.
