Experience the beauty of dawn on the African savanna. The orange-red dawn sky illuminates the landscape and the acacia trees in Alama’s Africa. Alone under the beauty of the dawn sky Alama is engulfed by the glorious sounds and sights of nature.
There are many East African animals in this video. From left to right you see the stripped hyena lurking behind the tree, Maasai giraffes, wart hogs, black headed weaver birds, Impala, plains zebra, the blue-red kokoloko bird (roller bird), Gernuk and African wild dogs.
The animals and landscapes are from the graphic novel “Alama’s Walk, Healing the Earth.” In the graphic novel, I worked to see with Alama’s eyes and weave nature into the illustrations as he walked the country. There is one similar landscape spread in the graphic novel, which inspired me to bring this scene to life.
I hope you enjoy this video, I certainly did. Your comments are appreciated as I experiment with this 3D digital medium. Not quite Disney or Pixar quality, but for a team of one, tools like Mental Canvas and Procreate help me explore and create stories in a whole new way. Thank you and Asante for watching.
