God of War III: Making Chimera
Chimera in Greek mythology is a creature that is part lion, goat and part snake, and is featured as one of the main obstacles in the Playstation's God of War III video game. This featurette is something that you will enjoy and learn a lot from. It features various interviews from all of the designers who contributed to the creature and it takes you through the many cool stages of development from conceptual development, modeling, animation and even fighting strategy - something you don't see very much these days.
Very nice and inspiring! Those of you who got a feeling for this conceptual art stuff, this is what you got to do, can you match this stuff? Yes, of course you can...just don't stop.
Fire it up and keep going! See ya'll at the top.
Ali - thanks for the heads up, and congrats on graduating.

Thanks a lot Randolf, and thanks for help making my stay at AI so awesome.
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw this, it made me super inspired to pull one of these guys out of my head. It's cool how this guy (which you only see a few times in the game) has so much back story behind the concept art, but you don't really see a whole lot of it in the game.
It makes you want to know more about what else they were thinking about the other characters or even the architecture/environment in the game.
Just got to remember to make multiple styles of the same guy during the concept phase to come up with that one super awesome one.

ReplyDeleteAnyways, thanks Randolf for making my stay at AI so much more cooler.
Glad you liked this video. I found it very inspiring after I saw it. It's crazy how a character like this is only seen so little times in the game, but has so much cool back story behind it.
It makes you wonder about the other characters, monsters or even the other environment/architecture in the game's back story as well.
Just got to remember to pull off a bunch of these during the concept phase to come up with a bunch of cool ones like this guy!
Take care
