Lines and revolution

The new surface was created by extracting the lines from the diagram and experimenting with multiple interventions of the revolve tool. The final surface was the result of revolving all of the lines together on the y-axis at 280 degrees. The 2d diagram shown was a exploded into series of layers that corresponded to the different scenes in the abstracted clip. This created about 15 planes of lines that when revolved created the dynamic shape shown here. The revolve tool was chosen because the entire clip is based on the two men circling a vague point in space while they try to get a good line of sight on one another.
