PROCESS
I started by modeling a ‘primitive’ otoscope in order to establish the correct dimensions and to begin working with Edith to develop a preliminary animation.
Once the model was completed, I created materials and set up the lighting. The completed models replaced the primitive models that had been preliminarily animated.
