[Interactive Narrative] The Making of the First Scene

Under the working title, 'Project Zero', I have made the first scene of my animated narrative. The first scene details the soldiers the story follows coming into the region on a Chinook (large personnel helicopter). I kept with the idea of using parralax with multiple layers to give that dynamic visual appearance. To begin with, I painted the Chinook from scratch, leaving a blank space where the blades would be. I then made 4 seperate layers for the front and rear blades. This would allow me to animate the blades while keeping the main body of the Chinook still.




The main sky background is a photo I took from outside my window. All photos used in the narrative are all ones that I have taken. This layer moves slowly as it is supposed to be in the distance.

The last layer is a diffusion clouds layer with a displacement filter and put on to screen blending mode so that it appears like foreground fluffy clouds.
