Process🛠️
Creation:
Starting with just the band's album artwork logo, I embarked on a journey to recreate and enhance their emblem, capturing every nuance using Procreate.
Transitioning to Nomad Sculpt, I transformed the band's logo into a 3D model, refining it to achieve a rugged metallic aesthetic.
Ensuring the trophy's visual fidelity, I crafted UV Maps to preserve its texture and color.
The design journey culminated in Procreate, where final visual touches were added before transitioning to Reality Composer.
🎬 In Reality Composer, the scene was set. Object interactions were defined, and the soul of the project, the audio, was integrated.

More than just a digital object, this trophy is a keepsake. Fans can treasure it long after their initial discovery, reminiscent of the nostalgia of placing a record on a turntable. As artists evolve and release new tracks, the potential for diverse experiences and trophies grows, offering fans an ever-evolving, immersive way to connect with music.
