Wine Cup Concept designs

This week, I’m showing the design process of the Wine cup. As the Wine Cup is an important character in the story, we had a lot of trouble designing it. Basically the shape came from original antiques from ancient china. But each shape had its characteristic. Some are more playful, some seems heavier/slower, and some had a touch of royalty to it.

Our Idea was to make it more towards the playful and cute side. Sort of like the hero-character stereotype. The explorations and concept art are courtesy of our concept artist Malcolm Qwah.

I was also vaguely involved in the concept design just to make sure that the final 3D model and rig of the wine cup was very animate-able and could bring out the emotions of what my director Raymond Teo wanted.

Enjoy!
