What If Metropolis? - New angle

I've had to rethink the angle that I will be useing for my city as it looked like I was pushing the viewer away and not showing what it is like to be in my city. To get round this I created a mockup of the buildings in Maya and started to move around it to find a better angle, this will also help me eliminate some of the buildings that I need to model if they don't appear in the shot.

To tell the 6 buildings apart I colour coded them, the colours used are not the finel design for each.

The angle I can't use
Out of the four new angles that I was able to create I find that #1 and #3 are working the best as them show the sky clearly, which is something that I want to features, and the monolith in the background.

#2 and #4 are the same view but I moved the camea in abit and placed it on the ground to see if the  angle looked any better if it showed the floor.

Angle #1

Angle #2

Angle #3

Angle #4

After getting some feedback on my story idea I chose to re-write to try and develop it further. Story Idea - Re-write A young girl and her father, a light house keeper, are out fishing at sea and all seems fine. However, when they are going back to shore a storm suddenly appears and the boat hits the rocks throwing them both out in to the sea.  Years later, in the present, we see that the girl has survived the accident and has now grown up. She is seen standing in front of her father’s grave showing that he didn’t survive, it is also shown that she has become a light house keeper herself to carry on his memory and to protect others from the same fate. However, the grief of her loss is still with her as she now spends all of her days and nights locked away in her light house on her own with none to talk to. However, a young man appears at her door one day and introduces himself as having moved into the old fisherman’s cottage by the shore. He tries to befriend her, ...

@Alan Collaboration: Walk Test

Walk Cycle test from Rhia Crouch on Vimeo . Been trying to work on Moom's walk for a skit but I'm not sure what else to do before I put him in to the screen so I can work out him swimming and coming out of the water. He is meant to walk as if he is weigh down by the goo and also wobbels a little bit. I know the eyes are off and there seems to be a phantom animation going on with his right hand that I can't work out.
