Finally got to play around in Anima – what a great and fun piece of software this is to use.

I installed some new characters from the code that Ronen kindly provided and then I bought my scene into Anima and started placing characters around the scene. I felt that the street was slightly to narrow at this point – after a few house of ‘trying’ to make it work, I caved and decided to go back into max and widen the street ever so slightly as i felt i couldn’t make it as ‘Crowded’ as it needed to be.

Making this change allowed me to really bring out the vibrant and busy nature of the Corfu streets – using Anima i tried to place ‘the right’ characters into the scene… making sure that they interacted with each other as much as possible.

I will render the final image over night – with the hope to upload tomorrow night. Hope you like my progress so far.

I guess i can go to bed now…. Night night.

TAXI is a concept piece, created from scratch, based on several themes put together to create an atmospheric visualisation of a futuristic city.
I have worked on trying to find ways of creating a rainy scene and capture a moment in time after an event has just taken place. Spent a lot of time trying to create a realistic atmosphere. I Just have to get the people into the scene now along with some other Fx.
