Road Scene (2)

Animation

The scene starts off with a view of the drain. The blob appears and squeezes through, this is done using a FFD (Box) Spacewarp. He then moves onto the road, a single eye turns around and spots an oncoming car. It grows as it sees the danger, but it’s too late, and the blob is crushed. You see it’s ok as it tries to get up, but ends up being crushed again by the back tyre. From here it gives up and just transforms into a tyre, before rolling off.

The camera follows the blob throughout, changing angles as it gets crushed.

Character

The character shows innocence as it walks into the road, not knowing the danger. As it looks, it shows fear as the eye that sees it grow large. This also shows that it is a creature far from human. It tries in vain to get up as the eye returns to it’s normal position.

Changes

Originally he was simply crushed twice, without any extra animation.
