Preliminary Technique Attempt
Through my previous research and the perspective drawings I created, I tried to create a simple underground model in maya. In this initial version of the model I have tried to include some basic objects that are commonly used in the underground such as sofas, railings and windows. And I have basically created the general shape of the vehicle. The model still needs further improvements such as lighting, materials and the corresponding scenes.
In terms of research, I started looking at science fiction novels about trains, subways and exploration. After a period of research I found a science fiction novel that had a great influence on my work. The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, and one of the ideas, the idea of building a hyperspace fast track through space, gave me something to think about. The idea fitted in with my original theme for this project, exploring the unknown. It just changed from my initial exploration of the outdoors from the interior of the metro to a more expansive and uncharted exploration of space.
