maya face model


This is another way of modeling a basic face which could be very useful in the near future. Instead of starting with one square and then shaping it round the planes as one, this example starts of with two sections for the eye and mouth for better movement. It is then is extruded around the rest of the head.

Get Out
Uploaded by Esma-Movie. - Full seasons and entire episodes online.
love the character designs featured in this short film. i especiallly like the scene with the two huge dark eyed male nurses side by side with the dwarf doctor. with door frame behind them. reminds me of a door man with a bunch of gormless bouncers guarding a doorway to a nightclub.

Chosen Idea

After presenting our ideas and receiving feedback we decided to go with the second idea of imitating well-known film quotes. The reasoning for this is that we will be using a family and can keep the casting and set simple. Because we are using the actual films for inspiration we will have a much of larger range of ideas to think about. We also chose to have the family acting together, over the idea of them interacting with the viewer because it would look more lively and they would not have to turn and look at the camera every few seconds.

E4 Brain Storm Sheet

E4 promo brief

The E4 brief is to create a 30 second promo and a 5 second sting advertising the Monday movies. The examples of films given are well known films but are not your top rated choices. We are to keep the style of advertising based around the subject of guilty pleasures.
The best way to go about answering this E4 brief was to create three different approaches and simply present them and pick the best idea.
First Idea- Articulate Film.
Taking an unusual approach to the brief this idea was to have a person act out a scene from an random artistic French film and then cancel it like its not worthy to be shown on E4 Monday night movies schedule. Further ideas were to have the style set out like an old Shakespearean play or like an old 1950,s experimental films.
Second Idea- Imitating Quotes
This promo idea would be a complete mockery giving off more of a humorous mood to the viewer. It will feature your every day family repeating famous lines and actions from the films. E.g. The Shining- Here’s Johnny
Third Idea- Imitating Quotes 2
Similar to the second idea this will again have the same family copying the films but will be shot from another perspective. It will be shot as if the family are interacting with the viewer instead of each other.
