Half-light pre-production

2010-02-15T21:08:00.004Z

I was recently asked to create a short animation to promote an up and coming sound design studio called Half-light, based in Cork, Ireland.

The idea revolves around a man stranded on an Island, who discovers some bottles washed up on shore, that when opened, begin to play some catchy as hell synth music and generally make the man feel less bummed out about being stranded on some god forsaken rock.

Here are some character designs for the film. I'll be posting more production stuff along the way.

Balloon Fail
