Collaboration Project - Poseidon Rising

As the brief says that we have to do at least two collaboration projects I will be working on a project with George Skodras's and Ben Jones. I have worked with them previously in the Red Bull advert project and am looking forward to working with them again.

The title of the project in Poseidon Rising and the general synopsis is as follows:

Set in modern times Greece, the Greek gods are now living among the people withdrawn into solitude after having their powers seized away from them. With a new force ruling the lands the gods are forced to live a mortal life however at the time of the new millennium, Poseidon the god of the sea, begins to gain his powers back. Sensing this he returns to his beloved temple however upon arrival is encountered by an archangel; a dark minion of the current ruling power. The archangel warns Poseidon to leave however he resists, they fight and finally are broken up by the appearance of an army of archangels. The final shot is a shot of Poseidon looking at the large army knowing the odds are against him, but suddenly thunder storms start to accumulate behind him leading to a smirk from Poseidon; Zeus is coming. CUT

This will be a large project with multiple people involved as George (Director) is planning on making it as realistic as possible with a lot of visual effects like smoke, dust and water. This means that we will need to enquire about working with some students on the VFX course.

However my next steps as animator are to start thumb nailing some scenes and planning out the animations as well as storyboarding.
