One of them, that I think is looking quite well, would be a short semi-historical film about Boabdil &quot;el chico&quot;, the last muslim king of Granada, and how he spent his last day in the Alhambra palace, before surrendering the city to the catholic kings, Isabel I de Castilla and Fernando II de Aragon. One of the strong points of the film would be, obviously, the rich and colorful backgrounds in which it would take place, with a king walking for the last time on this beautiful palace before giving the key of the city to the christians, ending like this a 10 years war, and more than 250 years of Nazari dynasty. The biggest problem with the project would be to actually draw the said palace, and that is why I am currently doing some tests and sketches before I decide to go for it. Here are some of what I have so far:</div><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/e43118_fc568dbcfc5e43b7a20cad72135e685e.jpg"/><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/e43118_4470b35fdfb64539b5c918649290cb24.jpg"/><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/e43118_db12c2fc6b414c50b22254b4fac9a393.jpg"/><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/e43118_f8d19dc305c448eea8987b2c442fa510.jpg"/><img src="http://static.wixstatic.com/media/e43118_a6f3608102924ebe92275e655be0a5e0.jpg"/><iframe src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/129543553"/></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title>Uca Farnham 2nd year Animation Showreel 2015</title><description><![CDATA[The first thing I want to share in this blog is this great show reel from the 2nd year animation students in the UCA, in Farnham.
