KAT IN THE HOOD and other short stories.......



I put crem in the hood



Made some additions to azizs room like a keyboard synth and music system etc to accent his love of music and why he wears shades and headphonesall the time.



Changed the bank name to 'DDR' which is the label the artist is under.




Made some additions to the abandoned room just to give it that final edge. I think its finished now. Im planning to use distorted camera perspective in these scenes.

THAT DANG KAT!




Here is the 'Crem Kat'. The cat is the personification of the drug induced state that the characters are in. But it is hoped that one will not realise that until the end of the music video. I played about with Gooch shading for this character and fell i may use it for the other characters too as it distinguishes them from their surroundings, but at the same time mixes well. Though i did like the white look i decided to go for the darker look. It works better with the eyes.

THERE GOES THE NEIGHBOURHOOD.



The Neighbourhood scene with some added elements

One Head




Here are some shot of aziz'z head. I thought he should be a bit cool looking hence the shades and he likes his music, hence the headphones. will show pictures of the whole character soon

COASTING?...............HARDLY!

I added some extra bits to the abandoned room scene:














Added some chairs, a drawer and a dead light hanging from the ceiling.

I need to post images of the cliff scene i was working on too:
Here is a view of the cliff edge overlooking the water. It is a not a complete scene yet but will be soon. As im working another job round the clock and dont have the luxury of time it has to be. Heres another view:

Here you see some other elements like direction post and car. you also get a nice view of the water. The direction post signifies the two option these kids are dealing with; life and death. one points to the cliff edge which is certain death, the other back to the city and the struggle of life. which one is easy and which one is worth it? This choice, this question has been with man since the begining of time.

In my next post i will included images of Aziz's room and Chealsea's space. I've got to dash!

THINGS CHANGE...........

Just incase you were wondering if my headings have some kind of profound relevance or meaning to the content.......they really don't. Just me having fun! Anyway!!

Here are some adjustsments to the bank:

I added the bank logo.

The Bank in the city. Theres still a bit of work to do on this scene. I put some lights on the cashpoint.

Heres a closer look. with lighting.

Here is the abandoned where the hook/bridge part of each verse will take place:

More work still needs to be done, extra props, extra lighting effects etc. Will post the changes tonight.

Back to the neighbourhood:

I will test different lighting and i also have a few element that i havenot included yet which i will post tonight as well as images of another scene.

I will also start getting charater images up soon too. C Ya

The Next Thing!

Ok so I dont have a clue about how blogs are supposed to go! so this is probably the worst composition of work you may ever see! but that being said, its still work! Im working on a music video now! it a freekance job. The songs called 'HIGH' and its based around two kids who get caught up in drugs. Its has a really poignant message and it is a very catchy tune! The style is again a comic is style with the rough edge texuring that i like. I still need to perfect 'my look' but im getting there! Here are some images :

I started working onthe neighbourhood where on of the kids lives.....The neighbourhood is starting to take shape! Just need to texture it some more now.
Ive also been working on a bank with a cashpoint which is pertinent to the song too
This the cashpoint as you can see.
The bank is unfinished and needs something like 'bank' in big block letters or a name, something to make it instantly recognisable. will work on that.

Here is some images of the city. it is very unfinished!


There will be a lot of changes to this city.
