Preludes Mixed Media Animation
Matthew Rankin
Movie, Video and Animation Design Preludes Mixed Media Animation by Matthew Rankin Preludes is a short mixed media animation based on the poem of the same name by T.S. Eliot. The film runs for one minute and eight seconds and pairs Eliot's imagery with an original musical composition. Scenes are linked by theme and by sound rather than by a single visual style. The work combines 2D and 3D animation, modelled in Cinema 4D, rendered with Redshift and composited in After Effects. Aerial views shift to street level, where figures pass one another behind screens. The animation reflects on modern life through an older text.
