The Milky Way
My original short film, The Milky Way, and a breakdown of some character models.
The Milky Way
Meteor Poses/Expressions
Meteor Turnaround
On the outside, the meteor is a really obnoxious guy. He's the jerk in a bar that is determined to go home with someone, and he's a bit too forward as a result. Underneath that rough, creepy exterior is an emotional, lonely guy.
The meteor was modeled in Cinema 4D, and then parented under a subdivision surface. The other characters were modeled in ZBrush, and then rigged and animated in Cinema 4D.
Moon Poses/Expressions
Moon Turnaround
The moon is a socially awkward, quirky and timid character. He might seem spineless, but when pushed enough, he’ll push back harder. Throughout the film, we see him grow and develop some confidence.

Earth Poses/Expressions
Earth Turnaround
The Earth is just a normal bar patron, just trying to enjoy herself. She’s fun, independent, and a little sassy. When put in an awkward situation, like having an unwanted guy in a bar coming onto her, she can definitely take care of herself.
