    Concept

    For this assignment I am be creating a 30 second animation for the 2008 Tuff Truck Challenge DVD. The concept is a an alien abduction of a 4WD for the purpose of entering the event. The alien performs some un-earthly modifications then return the vehicle to earth. The vehicle falls to earth creating a crater at the site of the competition. As the vehicle climbs out of the crater and reaches the lip the camera angle and composition is such the the final shot mimics the Tuff TRuck logo and can blend directly into the menu screen.
