Manual del Explorador Submarino

A short film animation for school. Did this with a bunch of talented friends and colleagues. We wanted to do a mockumentary about ocean sea creatures.....spoilers the cute fishes end up dying.
 
-Un cortometraje para la universidad. Lo hice con amigos talentosos. Queriamos lograr un corto tipo documental ficticio sobre la vida submarina.  Los peces  son muy cartoon, pero terminan muriendo....la ley de la vida.
character design.
I was experimenting with shape and different body types
to create new species or new interpretation of fishes.
In the shortfilm there is a narrator
who end ups being the scientist
investigating the sea creatures......
 
at the end he appears eating ceviche
made out of the flesh of the main character.
here some visual development for the film.
I was the art director so i was giving the task to take
all of the different design
and put them into a cohesive and interesting design.
here is some of the colorscript.
We where very certain about how we wanted
to play with the different scenarios.
 
We wanted every scene to stand on their own
but ultimately tell the story of the main character,
trying to survive inevitable death.
animation test for the shortfilm.
I animated this entire scene and
also designed the characters and their look.
Rigging, modeling and texture were
done by the Incredible Kristoffer Vela, a friend from school.
