Valley View Mall is a shopping mall built in the 1970s and demolished in 2019, located in Dallas, Texas.
The mall gained popularity again after the popular YouTuber and filmmaker Kane Pixels released "The Oldest View" a series where most of the action takes place in the mall underground.
The Mall is a 3D replica of Valley View Mall.
I spent a month making my version of the mall. Combined with 6 years of experience in blender, this is the final result (see video below)
In this 10-hour-long tutorial, I will show you how the process of creating a mall and animation looks from start to finish
We will go through all the processes of creating such a large project.
From collecting information, reference images, organization, to modeling, texturing, unwrapping, lighting, animation, post-processing, and more.
At the end of the tutorial, you will be able to create the animation from the video above
With the tutorial, I also share the blender file used to render the animation along with more than 100 assets ready for the asset browser
