Devlog 003: Making a scene

-- Incoming Transmission --
Hello, Cosmonauts!
This is Skytzi, lead (and lone) artist and animator for TTT

We are happy to report that progress on episode two is going steady, with the team recently wrapping up the 7th scene - which roughly puts us somewhere around 40% of the total scenes in the first episode

To celebrate this arbitrary milestone we wanted to share with you the process of making one of these setpieces a real place you can point and click around in

Everything starts with concept art, where the team gets together to brainstorm and lay down an initial idea of what a place is going to look like

The inspiration for this comes from how LucasArts artists used to contour their scenes to make the environment less like a movie set and more like an actual place that you're looking into
