The ORVILLE New Horizons - CG Generalist Work

As in the album description, I lead the model team to seriously upgrade the Orville and other ships. My work in this shot is a ton of modeling and qc work on the Orville, as well as modeling and some lookdev on the Union Space Station.

We even upgraded the original base mesh and gave it a more refined, neater look. My work in this shot is a ton of modeling and qc work on the Orville, as well as modeling and some lookdev on the Union Space Station.

My baby. While the rest of the team was prepping other assets in prepro, I begged for, and was given the Union Space Station. I took the basic mesh from season 1&2 and gave it a literal overhaul and upgrade. I did not light this shot, just the model.

On one side of one of the 3 docking arms, is a landing platform. I designed a series of elevators that lowered the shuttles into a hangar bay. Seth liked it so much he put it in the opening credits (briefly). I did not light this shot, just the model.

Like this shot, there were many shots I did the lighting for in the Drone Chase scene. Modeling, lookdev on the space station. Lookdev on the fighter. Shot lighting.

Fun fact: The Orville measures at (according to the client vfx sup) 3,067ft. The Union Space Station is 52,493ft from end to end. I did not light this shot, just the model of the space station.

So with this season I was a lead artist at FuseFX, working very closely with the clients this time around, to give the ship assets a full-blown upgrade to the overall look. Under the guide of the vfx and cg supervisors, I lead a team of modelers who as a whole, meticulously modeled over 10,000 panels to the hull of The Orville, which was designed by the client's lead vfx supervisor. The lookdev artist then gave it a major look upgrade all on her own. We then used this method to do the same to the Union Cruiser, and the Union Leviathan class ships.
I also did the model upgrades for the Kaylon Cruiser, and Interceptor. The Union Space Station, was a massive undertaking that I did the modeling and some of the lookdev for.
