inspiration

the Myth of Icarus is an interest source of inspiration for our animation ans they both  "symbolizes high-flying ambition"
.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icarus

this is a game!

inspiration

i like the atmosphere of this video, the girl's face and the wind, i think is really expressive and we can get some good tips from it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdrmlfS4HWE

storyboard missing scenes

these are some of the improvement for couple of scene for our storyboard

skecthes

I've developed some sketches for the cage people and the flying scene background after having seen both mine and group's researches 

faces

while for the dark faces of the people who form the cage I was thinking about Bacon as a source of inspiration

background flying scene

following Nikki idea for the background I post some images from my research.
I think we should do something original and follow our inspiration further realism and create a fantastic world populated by strange planets and creatures.. it's an idea which needs to be discussed!

character design_starting point

Here I've upload some of my initial sketches for our man character and "cage-people". this is a starting point, I'll keep working on them, trying to unify my ideas, group's ideas and sources of inspiration.

first storyboard

 

we are starting to shape our storyboard. today's meeting was very productive and involving.

we have something to work with!

background

what about something like this for when she is flying and the balloon pops?? (not consider the feet :))

another bunch of images to feed our minds :)

 

I think we have to think clearly about the scene when the girl is flying with the balloon, what kind of setting are we looking for? how much we want to show? are we going to keep black and white (I would prefer)?
