This shot from COVID Dystopia has the former president tapping his iPhone while sitting on his golden toilet. The only animation is his finger poking the screen.
The camera pans down to show his pants wrapped around his ankles. The depth map for this scene works surprisingly well the sink in particular appears quite dimensional.
For a film made by traditional means using paintings and hand drawn animation the added layer of depth maps helps push each scene to a new level. It is a low tech Analog film with the added benefit of depth maps for a Digital dimensional World.
Now that production on the film is over. I am considering the idea of starting a second animated film. This one would have a more linear story line. I want to read a few books on story structure before I start.
Last night I typed out the events that would transpire. I need to edit that more today to fill in holes that I discovered. I probably will not write much about this project until I am 1000% committed. For whatever reason all the elements of this story surfaced when I had to move my studio.
