I have changed my movie idea. Instead of my previous carousel story, the movie's environment will now take place in an abandoned city in the water. The story will be about a girl getting onto a boat, which is metaphorical parallel of the girl dying; and the city that she journeys through kind of a purgatory, a city of dead.
A boy's spirit is following her through this city, coming out of various places and once she gets to cathedral, they swap around places. A girl becomes just a spirit and stays in the that city as a spirit. However a boy becomes a real boy and takes her place to the right to live.
Technique: will use maya, if there is enough time paint over frame by frame. Will try modeling objects in Mudbox first and the importing them to maya as obj., if this doesn't work will model in maya. Aftereffects, Premier Pro for post production.
In this story there is a lot more animation. Some people from the second year will be helping me out. Might need to ask somebody to animate in 3D and I will have to rotoscope it over and then colour it in.
Colours: orange, yellows, reds, blues, purples
