treatment

i have been thinking of using a minimalistic approach to the project in which only the key elements are used
like the car and fish and the environment is going to be empty with just this icy terrain

reference

i have been using the clips from bbc stock footage gallery to study the motion and skin texture of the ray fish
http://www.bbcmotiongallery.com/Customer/SearchResults.aspx?searchText=ray+fish&type=Simple

and here is a list of movies that i have chosen to study the surface of the ice and its inter-action with light

polar express - the scene in which the train runs over a frozen lake

Incredibles - to study how an object look when it is frozen and under ice -the scene in which frozone uses his powers

the day after tomorrow

die another day

thesis statement

The goal for this project is to create a CGI car commercial for a hydrogen car. The commercial would emphasize the key point of "eco-co-existence" where the technology and the nature live in harmony with each other.

story synopsis

story synopsis

This commercial is set a time when the whole world is frozen and and all the life forms lie beneath the surface of ice frozen and motionless. then comes this hydrogen car which breaks through the ice and breathes life into the creatures that are frozen. thus establishing a world of eco-co-existence where the nature and technology live in harmony with each other.

story synopsis- first draft

A fish is swimming through an destroyed city looking for a home and it reaches a coral reef replica in an aquarium. As the fish is swimming across the tanks in the aquarium we see the actual habitat in which the fish is supposed to live as the reflection on the tanks.

thesis statement

Since lighting and rendering is my concentration.This project would be an under water visual effects piece focusing on lighting, rendering and dynamics.
