Alien body sculpt

This is the sculpt that I created for the group project , for this I used the character research that we had collected as well as the character concept that we had drawn up. From there I implemented all the cool visual ideas that I had seen.

2D animation

For the opening scene we will need some sort of animation to create a more professional piece of work, for this we are going to use Adobe After Effects and bring each of our environments in with the editable layers allowing use to create a sense of depth with the cameras and effects. These were my most successful animations that linked well with the other group members work.

This is the cave scene where I use a camera to zoom towards the cave drawings showing the research that the scientists had uncovered in our animation.  

This is the desert/wasteland scene where I have added in some bones to create a more end of the world type feel, for this I used a camera made use of the 3D space, then used some lighting effects and transform keys in after effects.

This is my demolished city scene with some parallax movement going on to create a sense of depth in the 2D image, as well as adding a rain effect to really set the mood.  

Matte paintings

These are the matte paintings that I have created with the use of reference and my own pictures, they have all been created in Photoshop. Some of these will be used in the opening of our group project.

 This is a painting of a desert scene with a distant destroyed city.

 This is a painting of a cave wall which shows our story with cave like paintings.

 This is another desert scene showing that everything is gone in the world.

 This scene shows buildings being destroyed.

 This is a city scene near a coastal line that is on fire and destroyed from the bombings.

 This is a misty scene showing the effects of the bombs going off with a city in the background.

 This is before the apocalypse has happened showing what normal civilization looked like

 This is wasteland scene.

Character concepts

With our group having 4 members and there being 4 characters in our animation we all decided to draw up our own character concepts, this is what I have come up with:

I went for a more grey like tone due to it being a post apocalyptic world therefore seem to click for me, I also gave him a more futuristic looking suit, as this animation is set in the future. The character is also a human scientist so I also tried to get the lab look for my character. The mask is there so he can breathe when he is outside due to all the dust and ever other living thing being dead.
