My Original 1980's toy Cylon for the original series, as it helps to be a fan when you build 3D Illustrations.
BATTLESTAR GALACTICA
Client: SyFy Network via BLT and Associates.
Art Director: n/a.
Project Date: Summer 2003.
Back in 2003 when I was still in-house at the Theatrical Advertising giant, BLT and Associates in Hollywood CA. I got a really fun one day project to work on for the new re-boot of the 80's TV series Battlestar Galactica. I am from that generation, and still have my Cylon toys, so I was amped.
When I was assigned this there were no Cylons built in CG yet, so we had no reference of the final product, all I was given was a single front view blue-line sketch to build off of. I had to create the Cylon as a photo real asset to sell the ideas from just that so I went to work as I only had one day to do this job, which is typical in advertising with fast turn arounds.
What you see above is the product of a one 8 hr day build+texture+render for various comp ideas for the team working this campaign.
