Test Photo-Animatic

This is the first animatic I created updated with the parts of the photo-storyboard and basic camera movements taken from the Maya model. The timing and the static-ness of some of the shots need to be improved as well as an improved sense of narrative throughout the piece. This will be worked on in the next few days with the intention of coming closer to a final storyboard by the start of next week..

Photo Storyboard

I'm in the process of updating the animatic with the Maya model and working out how to make the animatic more dynamic, show off the building details more and what kind of colours/ atmosphere will be used in the final piece. Below is the start of the photo storyboard which will be integrated into the next animatic produced.

Site Textures

With the model completed, its time for the UV and texturing elements to begin. As some basic research/ starter point for colours I have been taking photo samples of the materials present on the actual site itself.

Turnaround 1.0

Basic Turnaround of the Waverley Maya model as it currently stands..

Poster Test

For this last quick advertising exercise I dropped the model into an existing one advertising Edinburgh from the 1920s. The original is first, and my basic one is second. 

Style Exercise

This one was a very quick graphic design exercise and is a ridiculously blantent rip off of another poster I found by artist and graphic designer Michael Scwab. But it didn't take very long and I was using it to test out the font and effects I could use on it for potential use in the title sequence and in that respect its been successful..

Variations on A Theme

I've been looking at 1920s and 1930s travel posters for colour and compositional inspirations for potential use as part of the title sequence or as promotional postcards/ posters . This is my first attempt, its not there yet so there are several variations for you all to choose from, a compromise between them will work so let me know which ones are working for you. I aim to get 3 or so done over the next week for fun, research and experimentation...
