About this project

This is my non-profit new project inspired by the Portal universe. The objective: Create a Portal-inspired short film before I go crazy.

The concept is based loosely on the Machinima scene, since I'm using some parts of the original models from the games, but replacing textures, creating new shaders and animations and using a 3D modelling package and rendering engine to deliver the final images. Loads of R&D in order to -hopefully- improve my skills.

Will I be able to create a short ad on my own, although I'm not an animator and not especially proficient at creating full CG pieces?
