This is one section of the previz for a Film Noir animation teaser I started working on a while back. The plan was for the club scene/singer to be intercut over key scenes from the entirety of my scenes. I originally wanted the whole thing to be realistic and gritty, but then I decided to go a lot more cartoony with it and played around with some alternate designs which I ended up going with (which you'll see when I do my brand launch within the next few weeks), so this version got scrapped. Nonetheless, figured I would share this now so you can see the vast difference when I release the new version, in its entirety.

I've used that set as well, but the aqua color looks better, I think.

Nice! I follow you on YouTube, so I'm surprised I don't remember seeing you post that scene. Incidentally, as much as I liked the way that looked in the previz, the scenery I built for the final shots in Unreal Engine are far more apropos. Still a fantastic set for previz though.

I actually never posted this -- it was "From Ukraine with Love" with a certain politician singing about...things.  My singing was pretty terrible, though, and as I continued to work on it it got to the point where I didn't want to kick an old man when he was down, as I was sure he would end up being pretty irrelevant.  As it happens, last week proved me right.  

But I do like the set and the crowd movements look great, and I suspect at some point I'll repurpose it for another something (maybe a better song and different politico :>.

Wouldn't mind seeing your Unreal scene, just for contrast (I'm not about to learn anything new at this late stage in my life, but I do admit that it's tempting to at least try it).

Hello, Lord Dreadmoor,
That's very good,
Kind regards rosuckmedia

Yeah and considering how long ago it was kinda blows my mind. Stefano is great. I worked with him on a feature length iClone years ago for a producer here in the US...never got paid as I remember LOL
