The Feather Gallery was an in-house project that TechArt Enterprises developed from scratch. 

The project involved a lot of new ground for TechArt Enterprises and was completed in the number of stages.  The gallery building itself was constructed within 3D Studio Max and designed by Miles McCusker.  Views of the gallery were rendered using Studio Max and Mental Ray.  The idea to turn it into a website came a little bit later.  Careful tracking out of camera positions within the gallery was needed to ensure that the visitor is able to travel to all parts of the gallery.

The ‘gallery’ part of a web site was constructed using Flash and implements a significant amount of scripting to achieve the effect of moving inside the virtual gallery.We tried to make management of the gallery as automatic as possible, with many variables easily changeable.  Meaning new exhibitions can be uploaded with little effort and with no need to reconfigure the website each time.

Infact we are currently looking for a future artist to show there.  So if you know of an Australia digitial artist (we want the next show to be of digitial art) please put them in contact with us.
