3D realistic virtual human

Provides consulting related to designing 3D realistic virtual humans, develops, renders, and composites a 3D realistic virtual human model based on the design. A 30-second CG video and a set of hairstyle and clothes are provided.

Portrait: The 3D realistic virtual human portrait design is output. Select one from the three designs in the draft phase. The design to be submitted includes a colored front view and reverse perspective at 45° and an orthographic view draft. After the complete version is submitted, minor design modifications can be made a maximum of five times, but major modifications are not allowed.
