Below is a WIP for the grenade test in Maya and then exported in AE. It doesn’t look exactly right (and you cant read the writing) but the general idea behind it is apparant. Its a slightly hollow test however, as the idea this was based on (sci fi firefight) im deciding to scrap. The [...]
Idea 1 Synopsis
Ok so I managed to create a synopsis for this piece. Its based on traditional Sci Fi idea’s but with my own story and development. I’ll put the synopsis below, and then detail what kind of effects and idea’s for effects I have. Its a fairly solid idea but also has plenty of room for [...]
Brink Trailer: Relation to Post pro
Attached to this post is a trailer for a game thats coming out Fall this year. Its visuals are really interesting as it goes down the roto-scoping view. Its halfway between normal and cartoonish but it seems to work really well. The bit halfway through, where the downed resistance member fires his gun and the [...]
Idea 1: Post pro
Idea 1 Ok so we had our brief this week. It’s based on a short amountof video with post production put on. My first thoughts were something to do with airsoft. I do it all the time, its a big hobby of mine and it has the potential for a lot of work with this [...]

Viral Video update (another one) with script
Today was an interesting development. Whilst attempting to write the script for our original idea, concerns were voiced the the project did not have enough strength. That it was not considered viral, and would not be good enough to be viewed countless times. Despite this minor setback, we’ve gone away and come up with a [...]
Viral video update
So i thought i’d do an update on the viral video project. After assembling a group we needed to choose an idea. Unfortunately, in some ways it is impossible to “create” a viral video as much of it depends on luck and how much certain people like it. The hardest part is the initial launch, [...]
Mech walk cycle: examples and research
It was suggested from the crit on Friday that I should look into different walk cycles and see how the robots actually move. So i’ve decided to choose a few examples and analyse them, these come from various films and games but please not that it is only the way they walk that i am [...]
