Overview

Alley Amore is a short about a scrawny kitten who is abandoned by its original owner, only to be taken in by a kind hearted chef. This animated short is still being currently worked on, so all aspects shown in this page are works in progress and not completely representative of the final product. The only shots shown are the ones included in the trailer.

Lighting Breakdown

This short takes place outside on an extremely rainy day. Therefore, my lighting has been centered around creating a night time scene that is still not completely dark and gloomy. As the short goes on, the lighting becomes brighter and more inviting, to parallel how the chef welcomes the cat into his heart.
