Strelok, production art

.

So the title of my fourth year film is Strelok, meaning "shooter" in Russian. Here is a rough layout and also some production art from my film.

Island In The Sun

This is what is fun about art, you can just create your own world or in this case, paradise.


Here is a wallpaper version, it is 1600x900 so you may have to scale it, blogger won't let me upload at a higher resolution, anyway enjoy :)

4th Year

I am working on my 4th year film at Sheridan and here is some concept work. It is a very story heavy film inspired by Beksinski, Tarkovsky, Akira and the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games.

Alien Tree

Playing StarCraft II gave me a bunch of inspiration for sci-fi structures and planets. I kinda made this up as I went along in Photoshop with various texture brushes ... if you look closely there is a little space man looking for the tree of life or something.

Scraps

Some unfinished backgrounds that I started, not much.

Doug Stanhope

I'va been listening to Doug Stanhope's s stand up for a while and wanted to painted a caricature of the guy. I'm going to send it to him and see what he thinks. If you never heard of him look up some clips on youtube but that won't do him justice, listen to an album.

Update: I got to meet Doug Stanhope here in Halifax before his show, he was having a cigarette outside and I shyly approached him and started a conversation. After a few jokes back and forth about Halifax I told him I was the guy that did the painted caricature and he said he liked it and thought it was cool. I told him hes one of my heroes then he had to go into the club. He killed it that night at the club and I had a dopey grin on the whole time.

French me

Self-portrait although this is what I would look like if I was French or maybe painted by a Frenchmen.
