"Stray" Room Recreation - From Stray (Annapurna Interactive)

Being the 3D Technical Director for this class project, I was tasked with creating the pipeline and file system, critiquing, and teaching my fellow students on proper file structure, organization, and model topology/UVs. As well as, I was responsible for compiling all the assets into one file and arranging them. I was also responsible for modeling the room structure (walls/floor, fence, pipe, and assorted boards), as well as lighting for the room and tweaking it per shot composition.
