Classroom 2010
Meny Hilsenrad, co-founder of Studio Aiko, a VFX studio specialising in
CG production for commercials, games, music videos, architecture and
more, explains how Classroom was created.
The Classroom scene is part of a video clip, which we wanted to make
for a long time as an in-house project. I started working on it and, as I
progressed, things started to go in different directions. The original plan
was to make only the general camera angle that shows the entire
classroom, but as I worked with the scene, I started doing more and
more tests for different camera angles and saw the potential in them.
That’s how I started working on the desks and the electrical equipment
area – which eventually became my main concern in the project and took
the most time to do!
The lighting setup was a challenge,
as I wanted it to work in all of the layers.
The goal was to build the lighting in a
way that would work for each camera
angle simultaneously. It required lots of
camera and lighting adjustments, as
well as render tests and checking the
results constantly in each camera
