Senior Soiree Soon!

I'll be participating/presenting at the Senior Soiree tomorrow. I'm looking for a TD (Technical Director), rigger, environment modeler, texture artist, lighter and sound designer/composer. Some parts of the pipeline have already been done (even those that aren't my forte) during Senior 1, but I think this film will be a step closer to my vision if I had a crew to work with.

The story still stays true from Concept.

So if you're interested in any of those positions, please stop by. I'll be at Table 19 or you can email me on p.koppikar@gmail.com. Meanwhile, here's the teaser poster:

Rendered Stills

Test stills from the film. Lighting and environment modeling still need to be tweaked. But this is close to the look and feel that I want for this short :)

Environment (Work in Progress)

The rough environment that Sony and I came up with. These were done during Senior 1, Fall quarter of 2010:

Rough Cut Animatic

Modeled, rigged, textured, and lit, primarily for rough character staging and posing. There are still some TD problems like the eyes, which I hope to get fixed soon.

These playblasts exclude the lighting since it may overpower and interfere with reading the characters (but I'll post lit rendered stills instead).
