My final project is inspired by a long-term goal of mine to create an original (as original as one can be these days) and compelling story.
High above the Kingdom of Tandoria in the Smokey Mountain volcanic range, a disparate squadron of adventurers find themselves fighting for their lives and Kingdom, to repel the dark necromancer Azmorath and her horde of imps. Meanwhile an object falls from the sky, its light momentarily turning night into day, inside is a cradle with a baby and a puppy.
The aim is to create an animation which will help to advance my technical skill-set. Additionally, this project is testing my understanding about the importance of visual storytelling, for example when the project is limited in time and information, what are the key elements I should incorporate to best showcase what is required.
This project has been an eye-opening experience about how challenging prioritizing information can be, when tasked with condensing a ten-thousand-word document into a short 2-minute informative animation.
The final goal of my animation is to showcase a glimpse of an otherworldly storyline and give the viewer enough information to pique their interest and leave them curious for more.
