Digital Recreation of the Temple of Karnak

In 2000, I was contracted by Wesley Snipes and St Clair Bourne to do 3D animation for a documentary on Yosef Ben-Jochannan aka Dr. Ben. Wesley was doing a series of Black History documentaries, the first being A Great and Mighty Walk: John Henrik Clarke. The doc on Dr Ben was never finished when the Blade Series took off. There was some controversy about the film I was never sure about. History fell to commerce. Wesley, treated folks right and just got caught up in a great success. Maybe it will be finished one day. <br />
<br />
The 3D animation was based on a survey of the ruins of Karnak that resides at the Oriental Institute in Chicago. This is what it would have looked like based on the 8 weeks of research I did. Then 6 weeks of production with Max McMullen in London working remotely between Chicago and there most of the time. <br />
<br />
I returned to Chicago permanently and Max went on to be animation supervisor for Dave McKean's Mirrormask.
