Introduction
This week we had to share our moodboards and ideas with George in class. Even though I was not able to attend the lesson in person, I was able to get some online feedback.
Moodboard 1: Skullchaser
For my first project, I would like to create a short animation with a running, jumping and shooting sequence as my aim is to develop a short animation for my portfolio reel.
I explored the websites George shared with us and bought the Skullchaser rig, which inspired me to think of a halloween environment for my moodboard.
Storyboard 1: Skullchaser
The following animation tells the story of how Halloween town is in great peril as the Golden Pumpkin has been stolen. In order to restore peace in town, Skullchaser has to face some enemies and obstacles to return the pumpkin safely to the citizens.
Moodboard 2: Anxiety
For my second animation, I want to portray the sensations and feelings a person experiences when they are having an anxiety attack.
Storyboard 2: Anxiety
I can picture this project as an experimental animation, with a non-linear narrative and symbolic elements flashing through the screen. I will also explore the nature of the black and white dualism, as a way to portray and contrast a clear from an anxious mind.
Moodboard 3: Technological Singularity
For my third animation, I would like to work on a short film that focuses on the concept of ‘technological singularity’ that refers to the hypothetical future in which artificial intelligence radically influences human civilization.
Storyboard 3: Technological Singularity
Even though I have a concept I would like to communicate, I was not able to develop a full storyboard yet. I will need more time in the following weeks in order to think of a compelling story.
