Film Synopsis - Short story comedy piece, set in a beautiful jungle environment and historic Aztec ruins. Three animals set the stage for two human explorers' attempts at stealing the Aztec treasure.
Hey!
Just got around to starting my personal blog for this project! So just going to recap the past week and a bit...
The initail pitch went really well, had to make sure i cut it down and simplify the synopsis/story so that the main points were covered only, and that i didnt waffle on during the presentation! Tutors didnt ask many questions so i took that as a good sign, in that i told them everything they needed to know. Had a great interest from the class once pitched and the orchestral music composed by Alistair Primrose strengthend the overal feel/atmosphere of the film. The only thing that was lacking from the pitch was that i didnt have any concept work.
On the friday of last week the 'green lighted' films were annouced... and mine was chosen! feels really good to know my film has the potential as a BA project. Now it was time to get together my team... which was a difficult prosess to undertake, i had to tell people that i didnt need them and thought i had definates but groups seemed to be swaping and changing constantly! Finally i got together a definate strong team and the main roles appointed (see list below):
Jenny Morgan - Concept Artist
Ben Griffin - Concept Artist
Jonathan Pryce - Modelling and Texturing Artist
Robert Sidney - Modelling and Texturing Artist
Giles Pease - Modelling and Rigging
Dan - Lead Animator
Film Composer - Alistair Primrose
This week has been mainly about story drafting, creating concreate character backgrounds, motivations, scene descriptions, shot breakdowns, rough character design and collecting environmental/style/colour reference images. The story has changed considerably and im happy because the new ideas and cuts have seemed to strength it.
