Below is a brief overview of the different ways that our trailer could have been shot using the cameras in Maya. I looked into a few different angles and movements for the plan that Taz wrote out so we could see if anything could have been done in a better or different way.

Early Trailer Example

This is an earlier version of the trailer that is being created. Drawings were used as place-holders for when gameplay is added in future. There is currently no soundtrack.
The layout of the trailer has also changed to fit the 1 minute specification.
