The Vault
2023
OVERVIEW
The animation depicts an alien life form captured on an unexplored world, confined within a privately-owned laboratory. The creature is stored in one of the facility's many secure vaults.
Small and contained within a tube, the life form exhibits a remarkable ability to merge with or absorb surrounding elements. It appears to defy gravity and demonstrates signs of intelligence—clearly unhappy with its confinement.
This project originally began as a particle simulation study, focusing on spiderweb-like effects adhering to their surroundings. Introducing the vault's door added a narrative dimension, while the HUD display further enriched the story. The animation is set in the same universe as the Nebuline Echo project.
The visual style and color grading are inspired by the recent film The Creator, making this a valuable exercise in cinematic grading. Designing the sound effects was particularly challenging due to the lack of reference material for alien creatures imprisoned in labs—imagination played a significant role in bringing it to life.
