PORTFOLIO IDEAS

I'm thinking of doing a mixture of portfolio movie clips like a show reel. It will include like VFX title cards in motion graphics and 1 or 2 short scenes which I will create. The build up to the idea will be significant.

• Title card with motion graphics
• 2 or 3 VFX scene ideas
• Storyboard for show reel and colour chart 
• Research on ideas

Image background ideas for Portfolio film

I have looked at a few ideas on what background to use for my portfolio film. Because I used the green screen in my raw video, I can easily manipulate the back for the character I am using.

• CAR PARK BACKGROUND

This image is good as the shading is dark and gives me an idea on what I want as it relates to the character body language and the dress code.

I like this one as the side angle would make my character look like he is coming from the car park door entrance.

I really like this one as it has creepy environment feeling. I can add on an special effect in this one with the camera video glitch sequence.   

• THE BEACH SCENE

I like how the banana bed is in this picture as well as the sun shining as it is the opposite to the car park scene

The blue sky and white sand as well as the palm tree go together

This one should be perfect for my character because of the angle of the picture and the palm trees symbolise a nice 5 star holiday



ACTION POINT

• Extending the short film length to around 90 seconds from the original 25 seconds.
• More research showing VFX Artists show reel
• May just do a Port folio story board improved and enhanced.
