These scenes were inspired by the movie Ex Machina (which is pretty recognizable)… more exactly its filming location: Juvet Landscape Hotel in Valldal, Norway. The hotel/facility is surrounded by mountains, glaciers, rivers, breathtaking nature, and – hence the name – you can enjoy the view through walls made entirely of glass.
I used shots from the movie and photos of the location as reference for a little study on semi-interior scenes built and rendered entirely in Vue, which is more suitable for outdoor scenes, but was not really made for interiors. So, this was a step out of my comfort zone, but I had a lot of fun, none the less…
