Tablet and prop concepts

Below are prop sketches and a design for the tablet telling the backstory. Done by Juliana.





Lighting concepts

So these are our lighting concepts at the moment...still working on them, and experimenting with different types of light. We're thinking blue moon light and a dark look, but still light enough to see the action, to show that it's night. Done by Maddy and Juliana.




Character concepting

Below are various character concepts, from character size to sillohuettes to the top mood piece. All done by Nicole.

Concept Images

Below are concept images from our lovely artists. The bottom one is the current design for out characters, a tall weedy mummy and another short stocky one. They have anger issues. 
In the middle is a design for a hieroglyphic tablet which is going at the beginning to tell some back story. 
And at the top is a coloured set design, aiming for a museum look while still having a cartoony feel.

The Mummy Project

So we are of group of students from Academy of Interactive Entertainment Sydney and are currently working on our short film project for Year 2. Given a two minute time limit and with a team of 7, we have 5 months (one already gone) to create a stunning masterpiece. So at the moment we are in pre-production. Look forward to seeing our progress!
