Inspired by Windows 11’s wallpaper series – “Bloom”, done by Six N’ Five. Here’s my attempt at capturing the essence of those abstract paper folds with my own flair of photography.
The process for creating these piece was very quick and enjoyable. Prepared layered of CGI “paper”, ran a cloth simulation, played with Redshift’s sub-surface scattering materials, and sent a sequence for render.
The most time-consuming process was actually cherry picking the most beautiful frames. Interestingly, Six N’ Five and Microsoft Windows 11’s creative team face a very similar challenge – narrowing it down to the few ‘sculptures’ that best represented what the new OS brought to the table.
