January 2024 - February 2024
As a class, we began this project by going out on a hike to a local forest and we took photo scans of our environment using Polycam on our phones. We then went through the process of re-meshing each model we used for our virtual environments.
Additionally, our professor wanted us to use an AI-generated image for our backdrop, behind the environment we built. It was an interesting part of the assignment, although I still am not convinced about it. I used Midjourney to generate the image, then edited it in Photoshop.
After that the process was pretty straightforward. Every mesh used in the environment was a scan by me or one of my classmates, except for the foliage, which comes from Quixel Megascans.
Created for my XR 2 class.Â
