Angel Eyes
I created the world of Angel Eyes to explore how a multi-format workflow could be used to create a truley unique motion comic experience while also feeding AR & print/digital media outputs working with world leading comic creators Andy Lanning & Ant Williams & award winning animators & game engine developers Dan Stankowski & Stephen Stephenson.
The workflow used for this project was an evolution of the workflow developed for Looking at the Moon but with a heavier focus on the creative story telling & a specific focus on integrating the laungue of panel based story telling inherent to comic books with the animation style developed for the VR & 16x9 versions of the story.
Concept Art & Designs
Covers & Pages
As part of the VR UI/UX, dynamic cover pages were created (these can also serve as AR elements as needed). To bring these to life a number of talented artists were commisioned, each bringing their own style and interpritation to the project.
