Strike! | 3D Animated Short
A 3D animated short film in which aliens have taken over the world, but they only want one thing: a strike at the bowling alley! I made this film for my Honours Project at Abertay University.
Strike! | 3D animated short film made for my Honours project at Abertay University.
A 3D animated comedy short in which a group of aliens desperately battle for a strike at the bowling alley, using whatever means necessary. Taking inspiration through a range of films, from the slapstick comedy in Despicable Me, to the punchy visual storytelling in Edgar Wright's Cornetto Trilogy, the project has a strong focus on storytelling and cinematography as that is what I have the biggest interest in.

This shows a snippet of my environment process. I modeled and textured everything (with the exception of the wood floor.)
