Concept for Final

Embrace your shadow and duplicity or go insane from stress.


This project is similar to my first project conceptually. I am trying to show the importance of acknowledging the shadow within or inner concscience. I see the shadow as the more instinctual and natural side of the psyche, and the outer concsience as the side most affected by modern society. In my narrative I plan to show the dual sides of a character and the consequences of suppressing his or her shadow.



The first scene will show the outer conscience worried about his or her appearance, and there will be several clocks on the wall symbolizing the impact of society. The second scene is the shadow surfacing and taking power. The third, is the shadow indulging in the guilty pleasures of life. Fourth, is the outer conscience killing the shadow as a symbol of repressing the inner conscience. The final scene will be the outer concsience zombified by the stresses of society.



I plan to photograph these locations again without the character in them and do handrawn animations on top of them in toon boom. I will do stop motion animation for the clocks. I will take the footage into AE for effects and camera movement.

The 3d Animation went well but although I am satisfied with my end result, I would like to experiment more with the 3d tools to get a better grasp on them.  I would like to use them to create 3d spaces in the future.
