DOOM: The Dark Ages | Revelations - Plush Bunny

Plush Bunny! Held by little girl in the hospital flashback sequence!

I always enjoyed getting odd assignments here and there, this was no exception! Starting with the basic idea of a girl with her plush bunny I added some elements like making sure the limbs were weighted for the cinematics and more anthropomorphic then a 'Daisy' like plush toy. I dug deep to go back to my old school animation brain (originally went to college for animation) with the sketches and did some serious photo bashing for the final 3 concepts. The weird deformed looking one is actually based on a old Victorian era plush I found when looking for reference.

Even with assignments that could be perceived as fun or silly its always important to keep that problem solving going. How would this look in the cinematic? How does the plush toy move? I spent time working out some ideas which made it into the final in some way which included the reason for its limbs to hang was bean weights. Never seen or understood in the cinematics but its important it was incorporated in the design. I also did a boarding sequence to help inform the final sequence which included lighting and mood.
