Changelings Concept Artwork #4 - Horror Creatures and Transformations

Creature transformation development continues with the #changelingfilm!

If you want to see some of the initial sketches, here are parts 1, 2 and 3.

In the final stages of our creature's transformation, it's skin will become red and burned as if from chemicals and slough off. Here we see what will eventually become the female character Judith emerging from who was once Father Smith.

I'm very curious how Norm is going to interpret and render what we've been discussing. The idea of someone emerging from another human being is difficult to convey when the transformation is so messy. It's not like a werewolf transformation, but more like John Carpenter's The Thing. There's an amorphous stage somewhere in there that the skin is hiding and is only revealed once the skin is ready to fall away in goopy chunks.

So things are progressing nicely on the conceptual end.

On the script side, I'm working on a third draft that I'll share with you as it progresses. I'll see if I can marry the script to some of the concept work here so you can see how some of this is going to progress. As that happens, I'll start building the shots and compiling a look book and story boards for you all to see.

We can only make this film with your help, so please vote and share.

Thanks,

Phil
