Ken's first post!




Hey, Ken here, the other half of this project :D

I'm the landscape artist for this project (and general slave) so here are a few concepts I have come up with. We both agreed that the lanscapes should not be influenced by any EMO! (Or any aspect of the project for that matter!) Anyway, hope yas like the concepts! and feel free to comment. I'm off to watch the rugby. 'mon the Scots!

Edit: I can't believe the Scots didn't win! Boo! Hiss!


KST :)

Music!!

This is the first (note - ACOUSTIC) recording of the song Innocence, and will be used to put together initial versions of the animatic. The final recording - I hope - will be three minutes of awesomeness, including drums, bass, additional guitar and keyboards. I can't publish MP3s by themselves, so it's up as a video file.

Some early character sketches

Sorry for the poor image quality in places - my scanner and I are not the best of friends.

Innocence - Song Lyrics

Tell me, oh why can't I be the young girl
Who was certain that she knew her place in the world
I am not so complete as I was as a child
Look at my face, see the cracks in my smile

There I go again, falling to my end
The air is so thin and I can't breathe
When I began I had high hopes
They go up in smoke
As I fall to the floor and I choke

So cold am I now and so grey, so grey
But the light, but the light it will not stay away
So I raise up my glass and say cheers and I drink
And I try not to cry and I try not to think

There I go again, falling to my end
The air is so thin and I can't breathe
When I began I had high hopes
They go up in smoke
As I fall to the floor and I choke

Breathe - you can do it, she said
But for the monsters in your head

First Post!

So this is what it's all about:

Innocence is a music video and 3D performance piece, centering around two characters: a little girl, and her monster. Essentially there is really only one character, as the monster is a creation of the girl's mind - a personal demon. Nonetheless, he is all too real and reduces the innocent little girl to a thin and despairing adult woman. The woman eventually rids herself of the monster by reconnecting with some element of the little girl of her past.

Simple, really...
