Title: Chinese Cloisonné Stylised Rendering: Recreating Traditional Aesthetics through 3D CGI Dynamic Expression
Description: This Research & Development project was created during the third year of my BA Computer Animation Art & Design degree at Bournemouth University.
I explored how the visual characteristics of traditional Chinese cloisonné could be translated into stylised 3D CGI, developing a procedural rendering workflow in Blender that recreates enamel-like surfaces, metallic wire detailing, decorative patterns and adaptable colour palettes.
I also investigated how the style could be adapted for real-time rendering in Unreal Engine 5, using post-process materials and lighting to explore its potential beyond offline rendering.
The project combines traditional cultural aesthetics with contemporary CGI techniques, exploring new possibilities for the digital representation of Chinese cloisonné.
