JAPI

From November 2023 until March 2024, I worked as a 3D artist on the project JAPI (Jalisco Paseo Interactivo) for Shosho.

​

​

"The film takes visitors on an interactive journey across Lake Chapala, led by two guides: Ku, a wise and experienced guide who knows the lake like nobody else, and her enthusiastic curious assistant, Abel.

 

Each chapter showcases the lake in a different time period, from ancient times to the present and even into the future. Visitors experience this journey while seated in a boat, participating in the narrative through engaging tasks. "

For this project I created 3D models, altered existing 3D models,created textures, setup rigs (using RapidRig in Maya) and animated humans and animals.


Programs used: Blender, Maya, Photoshop. I used Blender and Photoshop for modeling and texturing; Maya for rigging and animating.

Animals
(altered exisiting 3D models; texturing)

For most of the animals in this project, I altered existing 3D models and created textures. For animals that were further away from the camera, I projected photos of the animals to create quick textures; for animals that came closer to the camera, I painted the textures manually.

​

I also rigged some animals using RapidRig in Maya.

People

I altered preexisting models of humans for this project, adjusting their facial features and modeling different clothing or accessories to add some variation. I also textured these characters.

 

I rigged several of them using RapidRig in Maya.

Vegetation

I modeled and textured several different plants manually. I created trees using the Sapling Tree Gen add on in blender, then simplified the models.

Objects and vehicles
(modeling; texturing)

I modeled and textured the tools and vehicles from scratch.

Animation

I created several animations for this project. The project in its entirety is about 17 minutes long, and there were many scenes that required background animations of several minutes.

A prison riot where one prisoner escapes while several others take down soldiers.

Members of the resistance carry supplies to their base.
