HI THERE! UNFORTUNATELY I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FINISH THE PROJECT ON TIME...

Ok. I hope I'll finish this in time :)
Synopis: I can only say it will be a graphic/visual vision of the past, mainly shot on greenscreen. The story is based on a 3d RTS game I'm making for my diploma so you may expect a lot of 3d models there. Anyhow... I'm posting a poster to force myself to do it... :)

Hi! Thanks for all the feedback. I've been doing some storyboards, found a narrator and a lead actress. And I finished the first shot (post it at the top of the page) :)

Ahhh... No way I'll finish it till Monday. Even though I chained myself to the desk and gained like 10 pounds eating pizza :)
Buuuut... I've prepared a special dvxuser-only exclusive HD preview :) :) These are the first, 100% visually complete, 40 seconds of the movie :) Music is borrowed for now - my composer is still working on this scene...
Anyway I think the premiere will be somewhere in July and at the beginning of October I will release a DVD featuring making off's, tutorials etc. and of course a movie in both SD and HD (as wmv and mov)
Ok. So here you have a preview:

That preview looks pretty badass!! I'm sorry to hear you could make it for the deadline... I'll be watching the thread and anxious to see your final film. Good luck!

That looks sweet. Great music and beautiful opening render. How much of the film itself have you got in the can so far?

Thanks for the comments.
I've got about 2 minutes 100% finished, another 2 minutes still in progress and final 2 minutes I'm recording on 22.06 - these will be without any CGI... I'll be launching a website somewhere this week with concepts, storyboards, and more information...
Btw. I've added other formats...
