The Green Mile

This is the blog for the project for the title of The Green Mile for our Animation and Motion Design Course.

Its a movie directed by Frank Darabont which was adapted from the series of novels by Stephen King. 

The movie is told from the point of view of Paul Edgecomb, played by Tom Hanks, who was a Prison Guard for the prisoners on Death Row, often called the Last Mile but they called theirs the Green Mile because of the faded green colour of the ground.

So after deciding to do this film we tried focusing on some key elements of the film such as the long corridor and recreating it.

We also tried recreating some of the textures on some of the walls in the prison.

For audio, we looked at the composer of the original score Thomas Newman, and looked at his other work. This is one of his pieces from another film.

We decided to do a stop motion from the mouse, Mr. Jingles, POV we did some drawings looking at some of the poses the mouse would be in.

here are some models of mice we done in modeling clay

 a brown and white one for experimental purposes

 

 

here is the one we might intend on using

as it is more realistic than the other two

made with fur and modeling clay.
