Neo Domino City and Satelite Slums

In todays lecture, we were told about trying to convey a story within our environment and basically want to get the viewer intrested and curious, but at the same time familiar with where they are. Another intresting point was trying to avoid cliches and try to minimize the work load using good camara angles.

First, alittle back story for the "Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's" character "Yusei"; A boy who lives in a city torn between the rich and prosperous Neo Domino City and the filthy forgotten slums that are cut off from the main city, called Satellite. Yusei grew up in the Satellite with a keen eye for mechanics, and builds himself a "Duel Runner" (this worlds motorbikes; they play card games on them :) ) with dreams of one day crossing over to Neo Domino City.

Here are some official images of the two contrasting environments:-

Will post another blog shortly looking at other contrasting slums and cities to get a better picture of what my environment should look like... :S
