Renders

Silver

In Silver we change a type - instead of using 3d letters we put words on the planes and that make it look much better. Also improved a lighting and texturing and add some animation on the characters.

Beta

Alpha

In Alpha we put our characters in the scene and adjusted some shots.

Character 3D WIP

I model my character Writer in because I prefer sculpting... Tom modeled harpist in 3dmax.
Here some renders. Our character is improved a lot since that period, it just a rough version how they are suppose to look like:


Here is Final Character Writer turns around:

Previs

According the brief we have to submit the Previs at 22 of February so we haven't got mush time to do it. All we manage to complete is the camera moves and get a u understanding how long each shot suppose to be.

Harp and typewriter

Here is some images form Web that we used as a references:






There is some desihns done in pencil and ink that we made based on this references:

Environment

The Character Writer uses typewriter and that firmly places the film in the past,before the 1980s.
So when we started to design the flat we based on bohemian style furniture. Is usually based on lots of ethnic elements. It is kind of a Beatnik look.We also decided to use bright warm colors for the harpist's room and cold and sad coloring for the writers one. Its gonna helps to show contrast between the feelings of two characters. Writer - is a struggling soul and the harpist - his muse and inspiration.
Here are some concepts that we came up with:




Rough floor plan, we decided that action starts on left with writer, then tracks right and then back to left:
