Thank you, Jim Hull [Story @ Dreamworks, and Story faculty at CalArts] for believing in me and my story!  He thinks this was too much.  He wants it simplified, and the ending to be that when LYALL actually lets LUMI touch him, that's when he gets killed.  It hurts more that way...  I love it!

REAL rough...  I'm making them prettier, don't worry.  Going to either cut some stuff or change shots, etc.  :]

I did sculpture with white clay for the first time in my illustration class with John Mahoney, and had some extra clay.  So, I decided to play around with LUMI.










Bought this in Little Tokyo, back in October to inspire me for thesis.  The wolf figure has been kept the same since~  I think I'll wear it to my Thesis Preliminary Review.  :]

Weee~!  A universal tree, well, almost.  They are found in Germany, Russia, North America, and are imported in flower form to places like the Philippines.  It can be used as a medical source, paper, and has flowers and fruits.  It is the state tree of New Hampshire, and the national tree of Russia.  It is also the tree in the Land of the Dead in Gaelic folklore.  On the eve of May 1st in Germany, men decorate the birch in front of their love interests...  Perfect for my project~

I'm going to be toggling through all the designs, posting new improved stuff.  Since I am grounded to the CalArts campus because of the lack of a car, I thought I would take pictures of the nice after-rain environment Autumn was leaving us today.  I think I might reference the bark in the trees, and the berries.  I have to think about what kinds of fall leaves I want; I do know I'm going to use birch trees.

Some are saturated, and some are desaturated depending on the picture taken.  I think this is the first time I've seen the leaves turn this bright red in Cali:
