Minor Plan


Minor Plan

Planning out each entry of the journal, this will help me figure out what's going to be needed for each page. Once I know this  will be able to start accruing assets to make the journal when major starts or even before hand depending.

The Field Journal of William McManus

  • - Events introduction 

  • - Bio and equipment list 

  • - Day 1, Salt flats heading to waterfall finds small semi-aquatic bipeds in the pool 

  • - Climbs to plateau finds grass lands, finds large quadruped, and decides to move with herd. 

  • - Follows river meeting Long legged Quadruped and medium biped 

  • - Water animal living in oasis 

  • - Oasis is attacked by eyeless quad 

  • - Head toward volcano and encounters a large eyeless ape 

  • - 3 smart large bone creatures block exit as a I go into volcano 

  • - Do not go into the volcano there is a big insect in there. 

  • - I am at the top and see a large creature in the distance making huge tracks in the salt flats. 

 

 

Entry 1 explains what has led to this situation, The Events of The Endeavors last days as well as the landing and naming of the planets. 

 

  • +Drawing of the endeavor 

  • +View outside escape pod 

  • +Escape pod plans 

 

Entry 2 is an equipment list; explanation of the planet as can be seen. A picture of the Salt flats, planning to head towards the waterfall.

  • +Ned Renders 

  • +Vine Drawings  

 

Entry 5 at the top of the waterfall is a herd of large rhino like quadruped. From this position William can see the river that heads towards a volcano where he decides he needs to plant the rescue become so it will be able to reach his fleet if he is not too deep into unknown space. 

 

  • +Rhino Quad Designs 

  • +Environment drawing  

 

Entry 6 As William made his way along the river, he saw creatures standing up in the water. He did not realise the length of these creatures' legs and as such nearly drowned trying to cross the river himself. The tall quadrupeds are evolved similarly to giraffes but use water to hide from predators. 

 

  • +River and Plant drawing 

  • +Tall Quad drawings 

  • +Rest area drawing and plant close look 

 

Entry 7 After finding some rest in the shade of one of the large trees that follow the river William awoke to large crashing sounds as kangaroo sized bipeds crashed into the tree’s causing them to leak fluids which is edible. Following their movements brought me to the oasis. 

 

  • +Biped Designs 

  • +Oasis Environment designs Day and evening 

 

Entry 8 The oasis is attacked by a competing evolutionary chain looking worm origins. The Skin covered Eyeless quad. Chased off most animals and drove William into the Rocky Mountains

Entry 9 similarly to the eyeless quad a large ape like creature resides in the soot of the volcano, a dumb creature that is very primal.

Entry 10 further up the mountain William encounters 3 bone creatures all similarly looking but each unique. He only gets pictures of their heads. He heads into the mouth of the volcano. 

 

  • +3 creature busts 

 

Entry 11 The Volcano has a large insect in in now nicknamed mother for the scariest thing know to him. The volcano got him to a high enough point to set up the beacon and has amazing scenery. 

 

  • +Insect Creature 

  • +Beacon overlooking environment 

 

Entry 12 Again William was woken up to a large rumble sound, instead he awoke to the sound of a large titan sized create walking in the space beyond the flats. Its immense size creating lanes in the flats beyond the volcano. 

 

  • +Beacon overlook with tall creature 

  • +Tall creature sketch.

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...

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...
