Meet Tyronne, He's a character I adjusted after downloading him as a Morpheus. The room, however, I designed. I made the room and all the obstacles that populate it. I designed this all in Autodesk Maya. Again, I didn't model Tyronne; I downloaded a Morpheus, adjusted him with the options given, and animated him. My main creative focus is the room and every single object in it.

Description; Tyronne, a Morpheus character, is on his laptop as he types and searches for a YouTube video of my other project, Struck! (or Strike!), and afterwards, he laughs at the video until a real loud thunderstorm goes off from nowhere scaring the hell out of Tyronne!! He holds his hands up and fear, and covers his ears.



About the room, I designed a moderate bedroom that's not messy, but simple. I mostly used the color green, and black to gray shades. This room was pretty easy model.

I placed images of common things in Tyronnes room. I gave him a portrait, gave him my portrait etc. I also liked the anime, Plastic Memories. There are also other posters such as Cel Damage, and Miyuki Ayukawa from Basquash. Also, I placed an unused alarm clock on a nightstand.

Here's Tyronnes basic laptop. Okay, The cup; The logo on the cup is from my high school, Howard High in Macon, Georgia. In some way, shape, or form, Tyronne has a connection to my high school.

I gave Tyronne an Xbox One. I put it underneath his television which is mounted onto the wall. His lamp is green, like most of his belongings.

About Tyronne, It was a pain in the neck to edit him. I have to change materials on his body to make it look like he's wearing clothes. I was able to animate him, as though he's really on the laptop. I had to animate the chair, the lights, and other miscellaneous visuals in After Effects.



Just a basic idea; I really don't have a motive, but a good motive for this, probably would be, that it's all fun and games, to you, unless 'this' or 'that' happens. To shorten this, It's funny until it happens to you.
