The First Eclipse: 1

Location: Mayan Temple, Day

Narrator: A solar eclipse is a Scientific phenomenon, understood by many in the modern age but lets look at how the Mayans reacted to there first eclipse.

At a temple a King is about to be crowned. In the crowd a shady figure looks menacing and armed.

The king looks up towards the sun in horror before the eclipse happens. The scene moves to a stylised effect where only the eyes can be seen.

When light returns to the scene the next king has been assassinated and pandemonium ensues around it.

Narrator: An unfortunate overlap of event like this can cause some confusion and create..  well ... lets say dangerous customs.

A Mayan drawing fills the screen depicting a sacrifice happening at the eclipse.

Witchcraft: 1

Location: Simple wooden house, Day

Narrator:  Science has often scared people, nothing shows this more then prejudice shown to the first chemists.

In the hut a young women is shown boiling water. and behind in a window a nosy person is watching. the next scene shows her washing her hands in a pond with 2 people watching. the next scene shows her bandaging someone's leg with 3 people watching. Cut to black and fades in onto the young women tied to a stake with a unamused face as the people stand by with torches in there hand. 

Fades to an etching of the time depicting the scene.

Narrator, looking disappointed : The witch trials of the early modern period set a new bar for overreacting.

the camera pan to see a key on a kite flying in the sky. As lightning hits the kite you see a man in a suit thinking on how to use this power before a lightbulb appears above his head and we fade out.

We hard cut to BBQ style event with meat being suspended on kites and struck by lightning as a way of cooking.

Reflective statement 'What if Metropolis'

Reflective statement 'What if Metropolis' I found this project enjoyable however i feel that the changes to the start of this project, and the lack of artist research and visual development, made the start of the project slow and less enjoyable. I do like having choice of our concept art, because of this we have choices on if we wanted to make things easier or harder for ourselves depending on if we wanted to challenge ourselves. I felt the start of this project was slow however that may have been due to me having a clear image of the scene in my head and not needing to plan and figure out the scene i=on paper. To make my render better i would like to have used better materials in Maya,maybe using substance painter to create photo-realistic textures. In any case creating a better consistency between materials would be better, especially considering that the stage on my scene appears to be in a different style to the other materials in the scene. In the future i will need to...

Script V1

Big Game Hunter, Wharf, Handcuffs by Torran Rodgers Version 1 EXT. Dock -Day Fast shots create a rushed sense as a ape is sedated,  handcuffed and loaded onto a boat before a cut to black and a fade in. Ext. Boat Ocean -Day The Hunter and the Ape are face to face in a tiny boat. the Ape is much larger then the hunter creating a comedic image as the hunter rows the small boat through the ocean . There aren’t any supplies on the ship the boxes are empty and there isn’t a lot of room on the boat to begin with. The hunter tries to fish for some food however is unable to catch anything, the ape sees this and reaches into the ocean and pulls out a large fish. The hunter is surprised by this and frustratedly goes back to fishing, the monkey offers some to the hunter who turns away from the ape. The ape leaves the food next to the hunter and turns around himself. Fade to the next day  - the hunters clothes are more dishevelled. The monkey is looking longingly out ove...

Lion King : Archetypes

  Film Review: Lion King Hero: Simba is the hero of our story and fits the archetype of a hero so well when thinking about the hero's journey. Shadow: Scar is the shadow in the lion king sowing ill will and deception in the start of the movie to set up the events of the film. Herald:  Rafiki calls Simba to action and shows him a way to get in contact with his father. He helps the hero find there way and shows Simba the path when he's lost. The Threshold Guardian: I think the threshold guardians are the hyenas in the lion king. i think this is because they are present and the threat when Simba and Nala go into the darklands, crossing the threshold into defiance against Mufasa. Trickster: Timon as he plan's to use Simba for safety as he is a lion and can scare off other predators.  Mentor/father: Mufasa if Simba's father and mentor, a father figure who is teaching him to be king even after his death at the start of the movie. Allies: Timon, Pumba and Nala are the main all...
