3D Rendering
This is one of those process pieces. Hopefully the process will explain the details that go into creating a 3D rendering. I began with the background (grass) image and then designed a soda can label detailing elements of earning a degree at USU. I tried to keep the feel true to a real soda can label including Nutrition (Academic) facts, Caution, ingredients, and a bar code. Colors were chosen to match the USU school colors. Text manipulation was done on the "Aggie" and "Pride" text to warp them in to a more fluid, banner type presentation. The large "A" behind these words did not come out well in the 3D version and was discarded in further versions. I wanted to create a very casual feel for the can, as if someone had dropped it in the grass.
