Right, I didn’t realise how long ago it was that I talked about the digi project. I did mention the idea with the screens already in the last post, but I have developed it further since. So here is what I’m actually working on now.
While at the beginning I was looking at having several screens set up as a wall of screen I’m now arranging them in a circle. The screens will face outwards, so that you can only see some of the animation, never all of it.
The animation will be a scene of a city and the people who live in it. One can either stay on one side of the screens and look at a certain part of the city, beeing the nosey neighbour, or one can follow a character around.
I’ve decided to show it on 6 screens. The picture below shows a basic setup of the whole city. The characters can walk from one season to the next or stay in one place.
The houses might look like this:
Every character experiences time diffently. While some might go through a major change others will “just” experiance one thing. I’ve still got to develop all of the characters but here are some ideas of what I have in mind: There’ll be a boy who’s gonna make and sell lemonade in the summer section. The lemons to make it with have fallen out of an old ladies shopping basket, who was chased by a dog, who so desperatly wanted the sausages hanging out of the basket. The old lady walks past a bank later on. Someone dressed in black is robbing the bank. He/She runs out only to get hit by the old lady with her cane. Rober can escape.
I want to include extra charaters and events too. E.g. a rocket or ufo landing in a part of the city. A wizard going in to The Leaky Cauldron. The mukklas from Peterson and Findus, Where is wally, E.T bicycle sceen, Hand from Adams family…
