Writing Assignment 2

1. Thesis Concept Statement
Every step you take on the battlefield is like Russian roulette with no luck. What would facing death every living second of the day do to even the best of men? Could fear cause a man to find the worst enemy within himself?
When an British officer discovers the existence of a mythical German warrior, he leads an expedition in the middle of the night to find and capture him for instant glory. Hardly do they know the dangers they would face on their passage. 

2. Target Audience
Because of the heavy theme and subjective material, the audience of my film would be a mature audience. 

3. Goal / Intent
My goal is to create a solid animation piece that displays my narrative and technical skills.

4. Format / Media
The film is a 3D animated production with 2D effects. Most of the piece will be made in Autodesk Maya, and composited  in Adobe After Effects

5. Aesthetic / Stylistic Direction - Explain why you've made these choices.
I’ve decided to try to use a limited palette, mostly of browns and tans. Reds will be placed to emphasize events and mood. Grunge and sepia are also aesthetics that I will incorporate. This will give the effect of a war zone, as well as a time piece.

6. Concerns (in terms of concept or production)
Mostly concerned about making sure that the time needed for animation is there. With a long piece, every ounce of time available for animation is needed.

7. Existing Precedents
This is an Animation test that I did for the aerial scenes

8. Other Inspiration, if applicable. (optional)
