I was looking around for past material, gathering up the background material to help flesh out this world and I came across this http://www.myspace.com/bradisdrab/blog/419772209 from when I had first decided to work on ‘a robot movie’. Haha, so long ago, its really spiraled into something more…

Gynoid – A Robot project
Current mood:inspired
I’m not sure why I’m doing this here, and its likely I’ll delete this blog but I need to write it somewhere, its about time I spat them all into one place, so here goes.
I’ve been tossing around ideas in my head for well over a year now about a movie project involving robots. I want to make it as per usual with the smallest possible crew, alone if it were possible. Realistically I’m sure I will need help, and feedback is always essential to growth in a project like this.
The film is tenatively called “Gynoid” and will center around a future setting where a man crafts a female robot as his companion.
At this stage I’m still brainstorming, finding my inspiration, and trying to figure out what I am capable of.
Some films and such which have been getting me started,
- Cherry 2000
- Battle Angel
- Chris Cunningham’s Bjork video
- Hans Bellmer’s doll
- Sorayama’s chrome and Gynoid work
- Dolls from Ghost in the shell
- Maria from Metropolis
- modern japanese fembots
- Real dolls and “my doll of sorrowful love(?)”
I suppose the first thing to do will be teaching myself more electronics, and animatronics, so I can have functional props and better know what capabilities are available…
