The main idea of project 2 is to make a small project to test a personal creative/technical methodology as “a proof of concept”, which can be considered as a preparation of our FMP. Therefore, I decide to test and dig deeper into some visual effects techniques that may apply into my FMP in the future.
What I like to do in my FMP is an urban legend (or creepypasta) theme short film. The main idea of this film is to tell an abnormal or horror story. It is quite different to other horror topics like zombies or ghost. The film may base on some ideas from Control, SCP (Secure,Contain,Protect), The Backrooms or The Thing.

In project2 I’ll dig deeper into some visual effects techniques of my FMP topic. For example, smoke and fire (for explosion, fire, guns or environment), CFX like cloth/soft object (for creatures) and distructions (for environment). I will mostly focus on these three parts.
The main purpose of this project is to solve the special effects problems that may be encountered in FMP. I will do a deep research on urban legend subjects and their application on films. I will also try to figure out how to make shots for horror urban legend theme films based on some materials and research.
