Feasibility Study is an illustration of a man's anxious emotional struggle the day after he loses his job. The goal was to make more of an emotional landscape than a concrete narrative. This was my Masters thesis project at the Glasgow School of Art

    Ryan, this is a really original animation. Congrats! Can you explain a little bit how you made it?
  • Ryan Fedyk 2 years ago
    Hey Blake, it is basically rendered in 3d using maya. I then cut up renders of the characters and brought them into after effects where I made the 2d sections. I also did the rotoscoping in after effects.

    Thanks for the add to staff pick!

    It resembles the masterpieces of Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin

    great camera movement, you don't see that much in an animation.
  • Ryan Fedyk 2 years ago
    Yeah, its definitely hard to make yourself take a shot and start moving the camera around with animation. You can either go overboard or too subtle. Some shots I would have liked to redo the camera but overall I am happy with the effect

    it worked, and i don't think i would have the patience.

    Your POV and movements are perfect. Can't imagine this school learned you that. You're a natural born talent!

    Great tale of modern angst with an almost Dickensian feel. Great work.
