I created this piece in 2010 for my final AFTRS project. We had to make a 10 second short animation for one category at the 2011 Adelaide Film Festival. The idea was, our animations would screen before the featured film. I got the catergory; World Cinema. Truthfully I have not seen many foreign films, except horror movies. Originally I pitched a similar idea, except with Sadako from Ring coming out of a well. The idea was rejected (much to my despair) because there was also an American version of the Ring so it wasn’t strictly foreign anymore. So I pitched a similar idea, instead revolving around the classic vampire German film; Nosferatu. I was accepted and histroy was made (elsewhere)!
I created this using Maya, Z-Brush and a little bit of After Effects and Premiere. I was, and continue to be very very happy with it. It took a lot of effort to finish it on time and looking back, it was totally worth it. I’ve put some production stills below if anyone is interested.
