Any Moment

2003 Realtime Animation for martix / Haujobb

"Any moment" was inspired by Oscar Wilde's "The birthday of the princess" - a story about the unfulfilled love of an ugly gnome to the young infantile princess infanta. She is both: protected and guarded at once by the inhuman aparatus of her father's hofstaat. Her naive arrogance finally leads into the gnomes death.

"But why he is not going to dance anymore?"

"Because his heart has broken."

"Then from now on, let those that come to play with me have no hearts."

I translated the story into a cold world full of technology and lack of feelings.

Although I put a lot of effort into this project, it never got into the state of realisation. I put it here because of the concept art.
