Sanctuary

This model was created for a visual effects class at the Savannah College of Art and Design. The class’s main focus was for 10 weeks to design, construct, and film a model using a forced perspective to film the model against a live background.

The model is made from a high density foam with a wood backing to help it stand. The figures were sculpted using oil clay and casted in foam. The stain glass window was constructed using craft stain glass while the panels in the bell tower are plastic sheets.

The final model was filmed against a live sky plate with the camera placed below the model.
