Medium: Video/ Animation

My Goal was to create a short film based on the world of the characters from Team Fortress 2, I manipulated these characters using Source Filmmaker and manually animation the entire production. the final production was edited in Vegas Pro 17 in which I added effects that were not possible in Source Filmmaker.

I decided to make my short film an action comedy, with some elements of horror which are present near the end of the production. The short film basically goes from comedy, to action, to horror, gradually getting more and more serious, with gags such a human helicopter contraption which takes the main character to the next part of the narrative.

The Process of animation is not too difficult but very time consuming, I originally envisioned the animation to be well over a minute long, but I was too ambitious and decided that I needed to cut down on time, which I feel like in the end turned out well since my short film turned more fast paced and engaging for my intended target audience.
