Hello to all of you. I'm a graphic design student doing my BA. I wanted to do 3d illustration and to see how I can create vissually interesting images with the use of 3d

The plot
A man gets hit by a car. What I do is I describe the remaining 1 minute of his life. What is he thinking the last few seconds of his life. Is he satisfied by his life? Because the human mind on traumatic situations like that plays all sort of tricks he doesn't control all his memories or everything he sees. And that's why the images will be surrealistic and quite crowded. (This you will see on the other images. These images are quite straightforward.
Before each picture there will be 2 pages revealing his thoughts. So if you don't understand a picture it means that you probably need to read the text.
Anyway here are the images.

This image is when the hero gets hit by a car. In this image you can't see him cause he's lying on the road. Everything you see is from the heros
eyes. Because he gradually looses his senses he can't hear well (the blurry text). The texts gets unreadable cause when it's completely unreadable he has completeley lost his senses. And that's when the journey to the unconcious begins.

The next image is near the end where he dies. His mind is totally messed up and he is visualising all sorts of crazy images. He is on an elevator and he gradually goes down to another place called hell....

Another image. It's a bar scene. Everybody looks like ghosts because the character sees them as faceless feauturless people with no meaning for him

Here is another image. His girlfriend has left him. So he is trying visually to remember her.

Another one

It's near the end of the whole story when the mind of our hero gets really messed. The door symbolizes heaven. He can't access this door. It doesn't have any stairs and also its locked with all sort of locks. The only thing he has is endless stairs that lead downstairs....

Anyway here is the image

2 more pictures.

This one symbolizes the heroes childhood. We all remember our childhood as innocent years with purity on our hearts. That's exactly what I want to say with this picture. The hard shadows are the remindings of the heros age and the loss of innocence. Notice also the cubes that make the word death. It's sort of an reminding from the hero that he is dying. Also the clock on the right is an intervention of the heros mind that the time is flying.

With this image I want to talk about the lack of communication on the heroes life with other people. That why the other person is half solid half transparent

Here is an image of the heroes eyes when he gets hit by the car. Notice at the right his figure flying on the air

Some people say that every memory in our mind is stored neatly in its little box on our mind. With this accident our heros memories are ready to burst out of his head. (The expanding white light)

He's working on a fast food and he's hating his work.

I think the next image is one of the poorest most awful image of the whole collection. It's a bout religion and his faith for it

The next image talks about his sex life.

These 2 pictures are the last ones when he dies. He sorta dissolves. I think that's the best way to vissually kill him...
