YSL 'Blight'

This is a personal project and in no way affiliated with or endorsed by Saint Laurent.

I created this as a flashy piece for my portfolio. Lighting this was definitely a challenge but after experimenting a bunch with different setups I came up with a pretty good looking one.
I created the chrome thorned vines using splines and scattered the thorns across the surface using a hair emitter.
To not get any unwanted reflections on the YSL logo at the top I moved it to a different view layer and comped both layers back together in Affinity Photo.

The frame's model number is SL 189 SLIM 002

Breakdown of how the lighting was set up + Comp & Adjustments. First 4 images show the lighting groups individually.

Four different lighting groups that light the different objects of the scene: Background/GI, Glasses, Display, 'Vines' with throrns
