This was a really cool project done with the team whilst at Cinesite - Having to re-create and extend famous paintings for Frameless - Immersive Art Exhibition (London) to match a full 360 degree canvas. The challenge was to match the original painting style (including brush-strokes), once I received rough concepts, I broke all the elements of the painting into layers, trees, water, sky, grass, etc then started to repaint and re-imagine the extension of the paintings. Once all the layers were complete, the comp and Fx teams would animate and bring life to everything - the full experience at the exhibition is really impressive.
