Aboriginal Myth

I bought a book called ‘Aboriginal Myths, Legends & Fables’ a couple of years ago, I’ve had a good read of most of them and one myth in particular stood out to me. In short, its about the creation of birds, mammals, insects, reptiles and fish and how they all developed their own characteristics. A rainbow shatters into a thousand pieces, each of which became a bird, as varied in colour as the rainbow, and of an infinite number of shapes and sizes. This is an image I mocked up a while back and a little test movie how I’ve visualised the multi coloured birds, lots of pixelated colours..

Hunter Test #1

Early motion testing. We want the look to be quite textural in high contrast black and white for most of the film - try and do as much storytelling with as little as possible whilst still evoking some atmos. Thats the starting point anyway…

We’re also trying out some 3D modelling to get a feel for the shape and character.
