Hi Fellow TIGsources...

I think everyone know about Minecraft.
But recentely I was wondering... Well, everyone seem to still love FFVII/VIII, right?
I played recentely Super Mario Bros for N64, and It looks good enough today.

So... What about a low poly, cheap movie in 3d, with the graphics power of a legacy console (psone)?

I'm talking about a "Minecraft" movie in the sense of making a deep cinema experience (the minecraft experience) but with low tech solutions (the 8-bits looks of minecraft)?

I think the idea is worthy of a least a good and sincere debate.

PROTIP: I'm not talking about a "minecraft movie" but more a low tech 3d movie.

If you think I can't make it something like this, I have a surprise.

I can do animations, but there's a question... how big do you want it to be?

I think It was 250 px height, but seriously, I quit on this, It was too hard (make me reconsider my love for Kof 13). This took me like one week.
I know it's not perfect, but I don't have anymore the original file, It was erased when I reinstalled windows XP.
I think I'm gonna need some help if this side is chosen.


But this is good, I did this in 2 days on gimp (I didn't even know about graphics gale), It's 50 pixels high (I think) and I think I could do it with this size.

ON A SIDE NOTE: I haven't done any lately, because animate is hard, so my respect for Derek yu who did amazing graphics with Spelunky for XBOX live.

EDIT: I want to show a last sprite, to show my coloring skill, this is when I learned about dithering.

It has anatomy problems, although.

Don't critique, If I want to make this, I will make first a low poly animation in blender, then pixel art over the animation.

PROTIP: I know I'm talking about low poly 3d, but a pixel art movie also can apply.

I honestly think someone should make an entire movie in the style of Rez. No filming.

No, who's Gilbert?

the biggest question is why are you showing us 2d animations if the thing in question is 3d low poly animation (which is done in a completely different way)

Because I realized in the end that a low res animated movie, fulfill what I want to do also.
Both are posible ways to realized, but that's not the point, the point it's if you think It's worthy a low poly/pixel art movie?

i don't know why it wouldn't be worth it. depends on the contents of your movie, i guess.

you should probably work on your skills before attempting something like this, though

thanks, I also like the idea. But like you saw in the 50 px sprite, I can do something like that, although I have to do other stuff before, like making the script, character design, dialogs, storyboard, background design.

I think I need first to start little, maybe a 5 min. video?

[filosofiamanga]

Actually, my idea is not so crazy, I'm glad other people have though it before.

I don't think they are.
