Early layout stuff...

Again, before we started our layout/set in Maya, I did some work on some 2D Layouts, and here I have some seperate component elements that would be in the set that I created. 





It was a case of trying to get inside my character, The Scientist. It was a case of asking myself, what would he have floating around in his laboratory? If I was him, what would I have? Would I give my character some history? Do I have enough time to even delve into all of that? Should I just focus on letting my current, NOW narrative flow, which is the most important thing? 

Some of these items, such as the screen, and the hooks to appear in the film, and they are composited nicely in the shots with everything else going on, and the hooks especially build that heightened sense of depth that I wanted to build with the 3D.
