Snails of the Lost Park
Ok, I’m reaching here but titles are tough. My 3D instructor shot down my epic 2D plus 3D movie - says it is unlikely I could get it done in the 6 weeks we have. After the initial disappointment I realized he was probably right. No matter what I do the short gag always evolves into a BenHur like production in my mind.
So I’m going to go with a simple snail in a pond and a quick gag so I can show some 3DS Max effects. The title reflects my secret plans to add a Raiders of the Lost Ark sequence if I end up with extra time.
Struggling a bit to get the lighting right and working with Reactor.
Her are a few test shots as I try to get the lighting the way I want it. Still not what I want exactly; I’m trying to get an underwater feel with several rays of light and caustics.
Crits appreciated.
