(FMP) Finalized Idea & Inspirations


Summary of Idea

I came up with 2 initial ideas for my FMP and chose to go with 1 of the 2 which I believed to be an easier and more enjoyable solution to animate my interpritation of the future. I've chosen to do a fast zoom out animation (similar to fractal zooming) which will portray how google is slowly taking over the world and are able to watch over anyone using a more advanced version of their 'Google Earth' program.

Inspirations

Here are a few youtube videos which inspired me to take this approach including a couple of video's which I have added myself taken from movies/games that use the same concept in some sense.

This video I find somewhat interesting to watch because of its simplicity and the way it draws its viewer in, making you sit and watch till you know whats at the very end.



Again like the previous video, very interesting to watch but also this one visually looks alot nicer, giving unique new fractal patterns each time it zooms out of one.



This video inspires me alot in the sense that I am going for a very similar approach with a more flat top view zoom out using stills taken from google earth. However, the 3D animation involved in this video is very well made and the zooomed out camera angles are executed fantastically.
