Realistic 3D Romantic Short

The screenplay for a 5–10-minute romantic short is ready: two Indian school friends, now adults, rediscover their bond after fifteen years through a simple WhatsApp message. I now need the words translated into a highly realistic 3D film.

The entire production pipeline is part of the assignment—modeling, rigging, animation, lighting, rendering, compositing, sound sync, and final mastering. Because I have no fixed visual references, you’ll have creative freedom to shape the look and mood, so long as the end result feels authentic to contemporary India and captures the nostalgia and tenderness of the story.

Deliverables
• Storyboard or animatic for approval before full production
• Fully rigged, textured, photoreal characters and environments
• Final 5–10 minute film in 4K and 1080p (H.264), with mixed audio and subtitles
• All source files—project scenes, textures, rigs—on hand-off

Acceptance criteria
• Subtle, believable facial acting that conveys hesitation, affection, and nostalgia
• Naturalistic lighting and materials; no uncanny-valley feel
• Clean lip-sync with the supplied dialogue track
• Runtime strictly within 5:00–10:00 minutes

I will provide the complete script, recorded dialogue, and reference photos immediately after kickoff. Preferred tools include Maya, Blender, Unreal, or any equivalent high-end pipeline that achieves film-quality realism. Milestones and schedule are flexible as long as progress is transparent and the final piece meets the visual bar outlined above.
