This hyperrealistic model was built to replicate the atmosphere of a forest with dappled sunlight. The lighting is gloomy, with moments of brightness created through the manipulation of window blinds. The objects were selected to convey a forest environment with earthy tones and textures. With just a simple change in lighting and the addition of snow, the scene transforms from a gloomy autumn day to a cold winter wonderland. A stop-motion video brings this shift between the two atmospheres to life with light transitions, weather conditions, and sound.
