The Vault
‘The Vault’ is my final year animation project and is set in the alternate universe from the Fallout series of video-games. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the Fallout series, they’re post-apocalyptic RPGs (Role Playing Games) set in an alternative 1950s Sci-Fi world, where laser guns and robots are the norm, In this sense they are reminiscent of the way in which the future was envisaged in the 1950s.
The animation is set the day of the ‘Great War’ in the year 2077, when all the worlds atomic weapons are launched on the same day. The fallout video games that serve as the basis for my project don’t start until the year 2277 and they are focused entirely on the post-apocalyptic events. I’m looking at the blown up, charred remains of assets in the game and also designs from ‘The Art of Fallout 3′ concept art book and then envisaging how they may have looked 200 years before.
