CS348B Spring 2018 Rendering Competition

The renderings below were created for the rendering competition in CS348B: Image Synthesis Techniques, taught by Pat Hanrahan and Matt Pharr in the Spring quarter of 2018.

Grand Prize

Cotton Candy

by Chenlin Meng, Hubert Teo, and Jiren Zhu

Chenlin, Hubert, and Jiren modelled cotton candy using a set of procedurally generated cylindrical curves for the candy's fibres surrounding a homogenous inner volume for the candy's interior.
