Minor Project: New idea

As I said in my previous post that I may be scrapping the idea and going for a new one closer to modeling than narrative.

I had a few ideas before I came up with the new one with phil's help.

Still image of earth being placed on a high detail orery.

Still image of scientific instrument with people gathered round it similar to the image I wanted to use as reference to lighting and colours for the old idea.

Movie poster (without text) of a small girl holding a teddy by the arm in front of a dark decrepid forest/apocolyptic city street.

Stills of an Exibition of old scientific instruments even ones that never got built.

Digital model of the "Enola Gay" a 1945 bomber which was involved in deploying the nuke at Hiroshima. (Zack Moat's idea during conversation of what I could do).



My new idea is to transcribe the automata of early 13th century Arabic engineer Al-Jazari as illustrated in The Book of Knowledge of Ingenious Mechanical Devices and hopefully figure out and show how they were meant to function.

I have found a pretty decent site regarding Al-Jazari and his automata and shall prove usefull in recreating them.
