Brother, The Main Character


My main character for this film is named Brother. Zach did the concept, and I spent the summer doing much of the model. He is still in development and needs his human heart along with other details.

Thesis Revisions

Hello!
This blog is dedicated to my senior thesis film called Brother. I will be posting much of my thesis progress on here up until the final output. Right now, I am moving to the beginning of the production phase. The story, concept art, and art direction has all been developed through out my junior up until now.

A little bit about myself and this "senior thesis film":
My name is Sari Rodrig, and I am a computer animation major at the School of Visual Arts. We are required to develop a short film (around 2-5 minutes) in the areas of visual effects, computer animation, or a mixture of both. My short, Brother, will be an all 3D short film about 2 minutes and 15-20 seconds.

Brother tells the story of a humanoid robot who can't build anything that works correctly. For his creations to become functional, he must find it within himself to give them life.

Through out much of my junior year and a little bit of my senior year, I have been working very closely with the main character of this film and his storyline. A friend of mine, Zach Brunner, has been the lead concept artist for this film. Together, we worked on creating this steampunk feel for the art direction in developing sets and character design. I will continue to work hard in production to make this film grow and develop. It's going to be a very exciting year!

Some work of mine thus far:
