FIRST WEEK
In the first week I made roughs of the environment that I will finish in my project.
For the task I chose the Fantasy and Temple. When I thought about the temple, I used Egyptian, Grecian and Chinese’s temple shape because its big and full of storytelling. The ancient Egyptians will set the main statue in a hall with huge columns, maybe there will be a second layer. Also, they will make the god statue which hybrid with their symbolic animals. The Grecian will put a pedestal under the statue and write the name of the god, their columns have more heavy and complicated patterns. The floor decoration also uses different material to create patterns. For Chinese temple design, craftsmen would use their skills to make the statues appear dignified and gentle. In some area they will use a high space makes a sense of connection with gods.
However, when I made the rough model, I got the size parameters wrong, which made me redo it, not quite the same as the initial screenshot, but the general idea is correct. I designed a Chinese backdrop for the middle statue, which in many Chinese statue designs makes the statue look more imposing and blocks the exit or stairwell behind it.
