Animatic Project
Animatic Project is a visual storytelling that portrays the world of a dystopian future where humanity faces extinction due to a catastrophic chemical leak. Due to the leak humans are forced to be put in a spaceship and fly through space but due to quickly having to send people away, the ships were not prepared for rations. To fix this criminals who were on board were given a choice travel to an unknown planet and give it life for people to survive, or stay and be shamed and eventually killed due to their actions in the past.
Dalem, chooses the journey, facing an uncertain future alone.

Humanity’s Resilience and Fear of Extinction
Humanity’s Resilience and Fear of Extinction
The experiences of Dalem, whose motivation was driven by the intense fear of being hanged for petty offenses, are symbolic of the survival drive that is inherent in human nature in times of disasters. His choices, which are made in light of surviving in the face of various dangers on earth, are symbolic of his hope and perseverance amidst hard times.
Survival and Punishment
Survival and Punishment
The exploration of the planet by Dalem is driven by his quest to find a solution to get rid of an unjust punishment bestowed upon him. However, as he explores the planet more, he realizes that he is entangled in certain morally gray areas where he has to choose between justice and survival.
Struggle to Rebuild in a Unknown Environment
Struggle to Rebuild in a Unknown Environment
Dalem realizes the destructive power of the earth underneath through his travels on the planet; it is only then that he has to accept some hard truths about his existence. This struggle in taking charge and understanding the situation can be considered an effort to instill some hope in difficult times.
Charcater Design Ideas
Here are ideas I was planning on using towards the project if I had the time to complete and develop it further.
The first image being what humanity had to resort to using due to the chemical leakage, before being taken to the ships. - Showcasing how severe the problem was and also even in clean air humanity still retains the fear.
The second image shows doctors, civilians believe the doctors are the people responsible and caused the collapse of humanity, but the doctors are only trying to help humanity push forward. - Simple design ideas as their priority was actions rather than aesthetics.
The last image shows how the criminals would look during their journey from start to finish. - Due to being an unknown planet, likely it will be dangerous or not breathable.
Blender was used as the primary tool throughout the whole process, being the software where I created and combined the animatic.
Mixamo was used as the secondary tool, by incoporating pre-made characters and animations which allowed for the project to go smoothly and take less time.

Status of Project
The project is complete, but I plan to update it in the future to improve the animation and potentially develop it into a full game.
