Initial 3D Models for Three Models for James Bond Trailer

The three models chosen to appear in the trailer comply with the storyboard; a helicopter, which will represent "Little Nellie", a car which will represent the white and black cars in the car chase,and finally, a Lego like character (The Lego Group, ND) to represent James Bond. This model will act as a template for any other characters within the trailer.

By having three very different models, this will ensure the trailer will be varied in its contents.All three models inhabit different environments, which will add to a varied display to the audience. Thus, it doesn't give the impression that the film is only comprised of close combat, or car chases or in air combat, but instead, it is a mixture of all three. This is important as a trailer should target allof a target audience (James Bond fans), not just some of them.


Based upon the initial modelling of the character, drastic works needs to be added to this to make it more realistic. However, the initial model didn't have reference planes to ensure it was as similar as possible. On the next iteration of this model, this would need to be used, as the clear difference between this model and the helicopter, it is clear to see that using reference planes is beneficial to the validity of the model. Furthermore, the character model would be more realistic if organic modelling was to be used more, to add a feeling of a living object rather than having rigid edges. This would only be used to an extent as the point of Lego is to have rigid edges whilst resembling a living object.



The following image is of one of the cars that will be used in the car chase scene. It is progressing well, reference plates have been used to make the model as accurate as possible. There is a lot of room for improvement as there are many details yet to be added such as lights, windows etc.
