A little while ago I was finally able to land a bit of help in the FX department after posting a call for such here on the site. Frank Salinas answered the call and is graciously donating his valued time roto-scoping, tracking footage, playing with holograms, sky replacement, and other effects. You can see a picture of him on the crew page here. Much thanks Frank!

 

However, we are still seeking someone in the animation realm to help the projects’ creatures come to life. Pictured below is a creatures head I modified and crafted. We call it a Liphon, something we stumbled upon while doing research into Star Wars lore. As you can see, it’s a dragon like creature. We are looking for someone to bring the complete creature to life in wide and distant type shots, 3 to 5 seconds long. We are looking for the creatures to fly just under the sound barrier, say around 650 mph. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_barrier

 

At speeds like that, you won’t really see much, an Alfred Hitchcock concept so to speak, and that’s what we are looking to for. Less is more. Like to be able to cut from an extreme close up (excu) to fast tracking wide shots of the creatures darting through the skies. We are also looking to have a few of the creatures roosting about the fortress and the cave, pictured below. Same brief/distant type of shots, nothing very elaborate.

 

 

Here are a few links to check-out below, if anyone is interested that is, in what we are thinking to use for the full body shots or something very similar possibly even the program as well. Rather than making something up from scratch this can be used like a pre-set of sorts. Please, check-out the links if this sounds interesting.

And on a final note we are still searching for someone with Adobe After Effects experience who can create the traditional Star Wars opening and scroll segment for the beginning of the project. Anyone interested in any of the above please contact us.

 

Thank you for taking a peek!
