The "To Do" list.

I am reluctant to tell what the video is going to be about, even when I've got the scenes and some specific shots all figured out already, I'd prefer to give you the final story, ask what you got from it and see if I succeeded as a storyteller rather than tell you what I want to do so you get yourself started into the dynamic business of mistake fishing. We can get there afterwards if it turns out I suck :) 

I might not be happy to give further details about the story, but I am more than happy to share the "to do" list that will make it possible:

3D Modeling:

- Main Character.

- Main Character's bag / container.

- A bench.

- A train.

- System Fluid: teardrop.

Footage:

- Room interior.

- Street.

- Train station.

- Kitten in green screen.

Mattepainting & Photoshop:

- City scenery

- UI interfase

So yes, from the list you will notice this video will contain kittens and a 3D model main character. I though about making it completely in 3D from the very beginning, so I started working on the main characters in a previous module:

... problem is, this will require more than two & something months to be completed since is quite a task. By myself. In a technique I've just started to learn. So, after some common sense kicked in, I decided to make it live footage with 3D elements integrated instead. The above cat will be replaced with a real cat. I will retopologize and give more polys to the main character since the current version looks pretty cheap:

Also, some changes will be made: will change the texture completely and this time will go away from the "cartoony" look to try a more realistic approach. Crossing fingers I will succeed. Wish me luck!
