DIGITAL RECONSTRUCTION · RENAISSANCE 2.0 × PETER YEE · 2024
CREATED FOR RENAISSANCE 2.0 × PETER YEE IN HONG KONG, THIS PROJECT RECREATES THE ICONIC MOMENT OF OLYMPIC SPRINTER ATO BOLDON WEARING PETER YEE’S OAKLEY OVER THE TOP EYEWEAR AT THE SYDNEY 2000 OLYMPIC GAMES.
ATO BOLDON WAS RECREATED AS A CUSTOM DIGITAL AVATAR, WITH HIS COMPETITION UNIFORM, FOOTWEAR, HAIR AND DISTINCTIVE DETAILS RECONSTRUCTED TO CAPTURE HIS APPEARANCE AT THE TIME. I CREATED THE AVATAR AND GARMENTS, DEVELOPED THE POSES AND ANIMATION, AND WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LIGHTING AND FINAL RENDERINGS.
THE DIGITAL OVER THE TOP EYEWEAR WAS CREATED BY 3D DESIGNER HANANEH SEFIDABI AND INTEGRATED INTO MY FINAL ATO BOLDON VISUALS.
AVATAR DEVELOPMENT
A CUSTOM DIGITAL LIKENESS OF ATO BOLDON WAS DEVELOPED WITH ATTENTION TO HIS PHYSIQUE, FACIAL FEATURES, HAIR AND DISTINCTIVE DETAILS.
GARMENT DEVELOPMENT
THE COMPETITION UNIFORM WAS RECONSTRUCTED FROM THE ORIGINAL, TRANSLATING ITS CUT, PROPORTIONS AND GRAPHIC DETAILS INTO A DIGITAL GARMENT.
MOTION STUDY
A SERIES OF SPRINT POSES WAS DEVELOPED TO BRING THE DIGITAL RECONSTRUCTION BACK INTO THE MOVEMENT THAT DEFINED THE ORIGINAL MOMENT.
