Story
From February to April 2024, I worked at Copenhagen Visual on M·A·C Cosmetics’ ‘Gift of Gold’ Collection production. Initially hired as a Mid 3D Generalist, I focused on creating the distant background skyline. Midway through the project, I transitioned to the mid-section of the city skyline. In the final month, I contributed to the street shot, handling the props, décor, and layout.
This project was a lot of fun, and I’m thrilled to have been a part of it.
Details
It’s hard to specify exactly what I worked on since we collaborated on many parts, but here’s a breakdown of my contributions:
Intro Shot
I worked on the background layout, including rooftops, the logo, cosmetic products, and multiple skyscrapers.
Yelly Slime drop
I was responsible for modeling and texturing the product, background buildings, and sidewalk model and shader.
Street view of Jelly slime catch
I focused on everything from the sidewalk up. I worked on the buildings, awnings, and street layout.
I also created the text signs, with Ulrik handling the image signs and lighting of the shot
Woman leaving nightclub
Then I did the sidewalk and traffic light with the red box, Sara also did some of the light poles.
It´s the same street as previous so I worked on the layout and some of the buildings.
Woman at the office
I worked on the carpet graphics, podium, and some of the products.
However, Sara really elevated this shot and deserves much (if not all) of the credit for making it a masterpiece.
End shot
I contributed to everything around the middle tower, including skyscrapers and many of the products.
