The goal of this project was to take about a minute of music and produce a 3d animation that tied to the music. The rendered frames were to contain nothing other than black and white, and another aim for the animation was to start off giving as little indication that the animation was 3d as possible, then work into a very obviously 3d feel. I really wanted to tie the imagery to the feel of the music as much as I could with this piece, so I decided to stick with Japanese imagery throughout the work. Though this ended up being one of my more time-intensive projects, it’s also the most fun I’ve had doing an animation, and I’m extremely proud of the end result. – Ben Huckaby, www.shadoweagles.com
