Abstracted Animation

In this animation the movie clip is further abstracted to show the camera views as individual spot lights, the two men as simple cylinders, and the gun sight lines as transparent planes. The animation involves moving lights that turn on and off in a way that coincides with the clip. The camera views for the animation present a new look from within the scene by taking a third-person views of the movement around the space.

The animation and camera cuts are not quite smooth yet but the overall idea suggests the making of a dynamic space created by the camera views and the sight lines which create a sort of rotation around the center space. Primarily, though, the space is created by the two points (the cylinders) and the line created between them. The line rotates around the space as the two points try to avoid/locate one another.

The next task will be to reinterpret this space into a surface that is a dynamic and directed as the one in the created in the clip and the animation.
