Below is just an idea of a character in the woods being chased, very fast pace and intense chase.
Looking at the Honda cog advert and a Japanese Incredible Machines with marbles, and a 30mins film called “The way things go." by Peter Fischli and David Weis. This is an ingenious in the way objects interacted with each over leading on to the next, chemicals reactions, fire and explosions.
Within our group we sat down to look at parts of 3 films, called, Children of Men, Ghost in the Shell 2 and Equilibrium. I haven’t seen any of these films yet so I may not be right in what is going on in the scenes that am taking about.
We had a look at bits of these films to look at the environments
In the Children of men film we look at the part where they are running from the rebels and save the only born child, running across the gun fire, rubble and ruined building. This film was to visualise the destruction of the building and how the characters moved around in the environment to get a sense of isolation and fear.
In Ghost in the shell 2, it was near the festival part of the film where the camera is panning around looking at the futuristic city and every think that is going people dancing and being festive.
I starred to look at different music videos that had an sort of environment and the one that stuck out in my mind was Gorillaz “Feel Good Inc” the part that am on about is with Noodle, playing an acoustic guitar, flies outside on the small floating island which is apparently kept aloft by a windmill. The inspiration for that scene was from Hayao Miyazaki “Castle in the Sky”
Here are some pictures of Hayao Miyazaki “Castle in the Sky”

Passion Pictures have been responsible for much of the production of the visual element of the animated rock band Gorillaz in the video “Feel Good Inc”
I like the idea of the floating islands in the “Feel good inc” video by Gorillaz so just done some sketches which could have an environment all based on floating islands in the clouds.
