I'm going to be creating a game teaser or trailer using maya and animating scenes. So far, I've been heavily inspired by dio de los muertos (day of the dead) and colourful type media including the films Beetlejuice, The Zero Theorem, The Fifth Element. And point and click games like Grim Fandango. I want to create an interesting and very visual trailer that ideally shows both witty, basic point and click type gameplay and surrealism.
The above image is concept art for the carnival world of Monkeybone.
This post is a first draft of my idea. I want to create a carnival like setting similar to the above image and combine that idea with a run-down dystopian feel. and introduce a few original characters somehow. The brief of this project asks for atleast 20 seconds of animation per person. I would ideally like to make the trailer/teaser last longer than 20 seconds if possible.
