Going into this exercise, the main objectives were to create proficient 3D models of various objects, create a believable lighting setup, utilze effective UV and bump maps for our selected objects, and arrange them in a visually interesting composition. For my still life setup, the theme I was going towards was a calm moderately-lit backdrop, with each item holding a sort of Japanese cultural element. This can be seen with the inclusion of a Fuji apple, a ceramic oragami crane, a small sake flask, and a Kikkori Whiskey bottle with an accompanying whiskey glass.
