Above is my vision of the first step of my characters journey. This is where he commits to buying the bus and moving out of his house. I wanted the scrap yard to have a variety of objects ranging from the main garage to the security cameras even to the crushing of the cars. With all of these concepts i wanted to be as efficient as possible buy only spending a short amount of time on each piece until they are readable.
This concept is when he meet his lover for the first time at the natural hot springs. Again i wanted to combine a mixture of eements from the ticket booth in the mid ground to the vehicles parked on the other side of the river.
For this scene i wanted to show the bus at a camping spot but have the viewer zoom in to find the bus. This would have been nice but i feel the time invested in just this one scene wouldn’t be worth the outcome so the plan is to just have a scene at the edge of the water circled in red below.
After the concepts i wanted to start modeling the scrapyard because i had a clear direction however once i roughly blocked out the scene i realized its just too big. I can get the same effect with this scene just shrunk down and include the major objects like the barn and garage to the bus’s and the metal compactor.
