The story of the 3D production by Big Al Gruswitz of Boundless Creativity
“Make the Lincoln Memorial statue... and then make him walk!”
The following 4 images were produced for Vogel Farina Advertising for their client DepoDur®, a morphine drip for pain after surgery.
Headline: "Are your patients immobilized by postsurgical pain? Get Them Going With DepoDur."
How the images were produced
A middle-resolution model of
the Lincoln Memorial
was purchased.
This is the interior of original purchased model.
Note: wrong type of column and lack of detail in walls, chair, platform,and columns.
However, the model did providea guide as to the proper proportionsof the Memorial.
A highly-detailed Ionic column model was purchased.
Models were made and surfaces produced for walls, statue base, and chair. Then the camera and lights were positioned.
Starting with a generic
Poser head,
it was first morphed in
Poser as close as
possible to look like Lincoln.
Next, the morphed head was
brought into ZBrush
where it was “molded”
much like a clay model—
only in polygons.
Rough hair and beard
were added with further
molding.
Details were then added to the hair
and beard to finish the
head.
Here is the finished head
in the final scene with a
marble surface texture applied.
Poser figures were first posed and
then brought into ZBrush where they
were molded the same way the head was manipulated.
The Poser wardrobe
needed to be molded to
match Lincoln’s wardrobe.
Also in ZBrush the coattails were draped to match the actual statue.
Many of the details of the
Poser wardrobe
needed to be modified.
After molding, the vest, collar, lapel, coat and
shoes matched the Memorial
statue.
(Note the client requested that Lincoln
have a slight smile in the standing images.)
In each pose the Poser
wardrobe had to be modified.
Additional details such as fit and draping were molded
into the figure’s
wardrobe.
Because the Poser
wardrobe doesn’t drape
with gravity,
those details were added in
ZBrush making the figure
appear more relaxed and
animated.
It took 4 years for Daniel Chester French
to complete the original
Lincoln Memorial statue.
It took Boundless Creativity 19 days.
