“In a theater, a sweeper dream of dancing in front of a public. He met a character who will offer him this opportunity.” The whole project take about one and a half year to become a reality: – 6 month of Pre-Production: script, storyboard, animatic 2D, concept design, etc… We come from European School Of Animation (EESA), in Paris, and the team is: Julien Badoil (concept design, modeling, texturing, shading, animation) Alexandre Santos |
We shot all in a theater near our school, “Le Centre Culturel Aragon-Triolet”, during 15 days, sharing taskbetween us except for the lighting of the scene, base on our designcolor, made by three men of the theater. Allanimation is keyframed, we spent a lot of time analysing dancereferences videos of Larson and hip-hop dancers. We wanted the dancerto be able to squash, stretch and twist a lot, so Larson made a setupbased on “ribbons” techniques, and also for the CG world maincharacter’s “excrescences”, able to switch between guitar bass, boomersor turntables. Modeled with Maya http://www.animadanse.com/videos.htm It was a great experience and i hope you enjoy the movie as much as us to made it ! Don’t hesitate to leave us a comment on www.animadanse.com |
