Animierter Kurzfilm: „Heroes of Bronze: The Memory“

Martin Klekner hat die letzten vier Jahre am Kurzfilmprojekt „Heroes of Bronze: The Memory“ gearbeitet und das Ergebnis kann sich definitiv sehen lassen. Allerdings muss ich auch zugeben, dass ich diesen Beitrag vornehmlich schreibe, weil der Animationskünstler neben dem Film selbst auch interessante Making-of-Videos bereitgestellt hat, die Einblicke in die Entstehung der Bilder und Töne schenken.

„Heroes of Bronze is a personal CGI shortfilm I’ve been working on for the past 4 years, a labor of love and an introduction to an era that I think is sorely missing from today’s film and animation world. I am not a historian, nevertheless, I tried to do the ancient Greece justice. I wanted to depict it as historically accurate as I was able, but at the same time, make it larger than life, the way it lives in my imagination. I am sure I’ve made errors, despite that, I hope I was able to capture the spirit of the ancient times and the Greco-Persian war period.“

„I put together majority of the scenes and assets in Blender, where I also rendered the shots. I also used other, more specialized tools. Absolutely essential for character meshes and animation was Reallusion’s Character Creator and iClone, as well as the Rokoko suit for capturing my own animations.“
