Some friends are putting together a horror/ fantasy film set at the start of the
industrial revolution. While most of the action is going to be live, they are
considering some CGI elements for a scene requiring a machine,
to be mostly organic but with a stream age influence, referred to as the 'Soul
Refinery'. They asked me if I could come up with some ideas.
This is the first part in something that will be much more complex, and my first
attempt at producing something disgusting. Lots of throwing things together by eye
with not much planning and using the more organic modelling tools in truepace. In the
animation you can see the heart shaped part pulsating
as the arm rocks and the cylinder squashes and stretches.
