Levi's — Quality Never Goes Out of Style · Chapter 2 of 9
Scene geometry
Streets, walls and props rebuilt as shadow catchers — 90% in Blender, the tricky parts in Nuke ModelBuilder.
· 1 min
Once the cameras were solved, we rebuilt everything the robot touches: streets, walls, props and ground planes. The geometry gives the render correct shadows, bounce light and reflections, and gives animation something to collide with.
About 90% of it was blocked out in Blender — most shots needed structural accuracy, not detailed modelling. Curved surfaces, small props and perspective-sensitive areas were modelled in Nuke ModelBuilder, straight from the plate, without leaving compositing.
- Shadow catchers and contact surfaces for the robot.
- Correct GI and reflections in rendering.
- Collision references for animation.
- One continuous geometry between Blender layouts and Nuke projections.
