The Kraken project is an active collaboration with my friend Patrick Nobbe who is also an animation genious.
The project is a modern visualization of the 1830 Alfred Lord Tennyson poem "The Kraken".
Brilliantly Tennyson uses vignettes packed with dark and mysterious imagery, forcing the readers imagination to run wild as they ponder his apocalyptic view of the Kraken hinting at an inevitable rise of the sleeping colossus at the time of the final judgement. It is from this richness of imagery the poet gives us in his poem that just felt perfect for integration with motion graphics.
Currently this project is still in progress, but to give you a good idea of what we are working with I have posted the storyboard.
