NFS C: Neil Eskuri - Artist Profile @ CGSociety |
Donnerstag, 23.11.2006 |
Das Grafikportal CGSociety hat einen Feature Article (Artist Profile) über Neil Eskuri rausgebracht. Neil Eskuri ist der Senior Art Director bei Electronic Arts und hat an Need for Speed: Carbon gearbeitet. Er diskutiert über die grafischen Herausforderungen wie man Straßen, Wagen, Leute, die Effekte, Lichter und Stadtlandschaften generiert und in einem Spiel zusammen bringt.
Auszug:
With all the platforms on which the game was going to be produced for, it was decided to keep the time of day at night to simplify multiple lighting scenarios. The art direction was to keep things as dark as possible and use lighting to help guide the player's eye down the tracks. Neil uses the term 'Jewels of Color' to highlight the buildings and environment with color to contrast the darker areas. They also tried to use the car's headlights to light up the road so the player would have a better sense of nighttime and speed.
As the different platform requirements were complex and the timeframe to produce the game was very tight, the EA team on NFS:Carbon was pretty big. The number was 170+ for the entire project. Neil Eskuri focused mostly on the worlds, FMV/NIS, animation and cars and had a great support team. Each of those areas had specialists. “Within worlds we have people who specialize on the road splines and side terrain to make good exciting drives,” he explains. “Also, there were those who focus on the creation of the cities and environments. For the FMV and NIS, just organizing the stage shoot was a speciality. Of course, animation is a focus for the NIS characters and police along with the in-game character cut-aways. The camera presentation also had a specialist that involved the coordination of several groups. Since the cars are the main stars in a driving game we have a whole department focused strictly on the creation of the 50+ cars in the game.”
Für grafisch Interessierte ist der Artikel sicherlich interessant, aber auch für alle anderen lesenswert, die mehr über die Arbeit an Need for Speed Carbon erfahren wollen.
