Close
on the heels of the UK telecast of Jack Frost, Mumbai based MEL (Maya
Entertainment Limited) has now bagged an assignment from an LA based studio
for doing game cinematics.
Production for the assignment, which is an action adventure cum horror
game began in December 2004 and the cinematics work shall be on for the
next 5 months.
Speaking to Animation 'xpress, MEL COO Rajiv Sangari said
that,"We are doing the concept designs, storyboarding, character,
set modelling and animation to final output. We are also doing the promos
(approx 15 mins) for the game"
Continuing, he added, "The most interesting aspect of this assignment
is that we are doing concept art and character design which demonstrates
the increasing confidence of our clients in our ability to do pre production
work"
When asked whether the assignement was a co production or some sort of
alliance, Sangari replied, "This particular assignment is purely
service work"
Earlier in July, MEL had made announcements regarding the bagging of quite
a few projects, one of which was a gaming project for a leading US based
Toy Manafacturer. On being asked whether the new assignment was an extension
of the earlier assignment, Sangari stated that Toy Makers gaming contract
work which was mostly model work and character development was delivered
last year itself and that this new project had nothing to do with its
previous assignments.
