forget me not: February 2011

Dear Diary...
I just started my very own shortfilm: "Forget-me-not". As you are always really interested in my work I'll let you know what I've done so far and keep you up to date! You know, when doing a shortfilm, it's all about the story. You don't know the story? Well, here it is:

An old storywriter falls into depression after his wife dies. The characters he created in his stories, which are interacting in reality, are trying to bring him back to life.The more the storywriter ignores his imaginary characters, the more invisible they get, until the old man finds one of his books. As soon as he starts remembering his characters, they get back their visibility. The old man realises that if the writes about his dead wife, she will life forever in his memories.

Sounds good, right? And as I have really good people collaborating with me, I think this will be a wonderful film!

Its a rainy SUNday

Dear Diary...
its sunday, a very nice sunday. What day would be better to meet a good friend, have a Crêpes in the sun at Riverside-Market and then go to uni and do some colour/texture test? Thanks to Lisa I finally have some texture-test I can show you! This is how the film might look:

Yes it is 3D and yes it looks like a painting! How cool is that??
It's just a test though, imagine how it looks in a moving environment with proper light... uuuhh!!

Moving Rrroar!

Dear Diary...
He is alive!
But he is not the only one. The old woman, the fairy AND the dragon are alive. I've put a video together to show you the turnarounds of Ben and Lisa's models, and mine of course! Oh, and the dragon's deform-test as well.

There is an elf that is almost finished as well. Gabby want's to give him a final skin treatment before he is ready for the world!
Next point on my ToDo-List is to finish the Video-PreViz and try to figure out the texture.
So, hope to see you next week :-)
