Hi folks!
It’s been a long time since I posted something here on cgsociety forums… Anyway, I’m currently working on my degree project, a short movie called Point of View. I’m going to use again my favorite characters - sperms 
but please, consider it just a form, I realize they are more easily animateable than bipeds or even quadrupeds… however, it’s not only about making my job easier (ok, another cheat - I don’t have to figure out how male and female characters will differ 
), it’s also about evolution of opinion.
I found out a lot of things that I was blind to, right in this year, 2012 and I feel that I want to share some of my recent experience with the world. And hopefully to show audience, how realization of certain things can lead to the right path. OK, maybe I’m little too naive, but this concept is definitely a great motivator for me
There is sort of a killer deadline - I have to deliver the final result at the beginning of september (if I don’t want to lenghten my studies till june 2013)… Right now I have completed 2D animatic, concepts, almost all the 3D models (just a bunch of details remaining) and am ready for rigging. After that, I’ll model layout environment and make 3D version of animatic, which I’m going to use as a guideline for the final modeling…
Oh I didn’t mention technique, did I?
I found that I just don’t like sitting in front of computer anymore, therefore I involved some fun work with clay sculpture and energy drinks cans that I collected for no reason over last three years (well I guess not all of them but at least enough to make some interesting models :))
Soooo, after I’ll have 3D animatic, I can move into my studio garage (which is still sort of wip, need to get few little details out of way, then I’ll post some photos) and create models from clay, cans and light it with LED lights… currently I’m working on DIY softbox - a lot of fun, even if it got a bit complicated:D and then I hope everything will be ready for shooting (on greenscreen if I find a way to change the color of current redscreen 
), matchmoving and compositing… I believe I can spare a lot of time on rendering, since I’ll have the environment in real… but I’m really not sure about time I’ll need for tracking…:shrug:
so the story is about conflict between organic and mechanic form and about cognition of truth…
here are some pictures, these are concepts and models of sperms, cameras and cameras in sperm’s head:
yes, there are few triangles, please don’t kill me
