Alphega Part 1

Alphega, Part 1 is a short animated film I produced while in Sheridan College's Post-Grad Computer Animation Program. It's the first couple of minutes of what I hope will eventually be a 14 minute film. I won't go into too much commentary on what's happening in this first part of the film because that might reveal more than I want to and possibly spoil it for the viewer when I finally present the entire film. I will say that the full story line has quite a deep curve to it and the character goes through some extremes during the ensuing adventures - this first part is really just introducing the character. It's sort of a teaser for the film I still hope to create.

The programs used to produce this: Maya, Mudbox, After Effects, Photoshop and Premiere Pro.

@postsilv71 The music was composed, sung and performed (except for the violin) by Sahlia Wong as an original score for this film, so as far as I know, she calls it "Alphega". You can check out her YouTube channel; sasalaa.

I really enjoyed this. You are very talented. How long does something like this take? Really amazing visuals and content. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

@aufheben5 Thanks for the compliments! This took me quite a while to produce - I worked on it for 5 months while at Sheridan College and then spent over a month more doing the "post-production" work to refine the look of it. Mind you, I was working really long days, so really, if I had been working 40 hour weeks this would have been close to a years work. Although I was learning as I went along, so that slowed things down a bit.
