that idea

OK so Ive not really got anything to physically show what Ive done this week, but what i have done is work on the ideas for our group project.
so basically myself and Simon have been watching alot of film trailers,introductions and films such as blade runner and escape from city 17. We've got a fair few ideas on the table and what we hope to produce is a movie trailer with lots of shots rather than a continuous piece which had a storyline to. we are heading towards a dark/smokey theme getting inspiration from blade runner where alot of smoke effects are used to cover areas, which happens to be a very handy technique.
so the few ideas we have so far involve a scene with a old dusty book, that when opens reveals a projection of floaty orbs which seem to be of different places. The main character then gets sucked into one of the places. we would also like possibly a cave scene and having a face in the wall that kinda comes out and looks at you as you pass by. hopefully by tomorrow ill be sure of exactly what we are doing as these are only a few of the ideas so far.

escape from city 17 is basicly the standard we are aiming for


ive spent the majority of my time in After effects playing around with the particle effects and doing various tutorials, also tried a go at tracking objects in after FX and Toxik, which went ok, but got a tad crazy at the end.
for now thats all i can think of but ill probably blog some more at a later point in the weekend
