Opening Sequence Refference

Here is a quick refference for the opening scene of the movie, refference is taken from Final Fantasy VII opening Sequence.
This is just for the sequence where the camera pans through what looks like space and eventually down to sophie's zepplin model.

More References!!









So even tho everyone decided that the grave stones will be made up of bits of junk and a little bit of stone, these are just a few pics that can help us get an idea of what can be created for the graveyard, (mainly to help me get some inspiration for modelling the grave stones/plaques)

9 Trailer - and some incredible referrence material!

I remember seeing a short animated film called 9, directed and made by Shane Acker, a year or so (maybe longer) ago, it's incredible to realise how an animated short could - and now has been turned into a full length feature film. It's directed by Tim Burton, and has voice acting by celebrity actors including Elijah Wood.. Just incredible, to go from such humble beginnings as an independent film producer to go to the big screen with such calibre and class as Burton on board.. So this is what us animators should aspire to, think big, deffinately..



And the original animated short it's based on:



And just one more for good measure; Jojo in the Stars, Directed by Marc Craste, 2003, Studio AKA.



Furthermore, I've found an interesting website with plenty of great steampunk, dieselpunk, and anything else in between: it's updated on a daily basis, and has a whole host of different articles and images. 'The Gatehouse'

Halo 3: ODST Trailer............

Even though we have our style and ideas etc. pretty clear in our heads now, thought I'd add this trailer as inspiration for our environments. It has some really nice 'wreck' and atmosphere refference which I think is quite similar to what we have in mind.

Plus it's a cool trailer :P................. Enjoy.........................
