Preface X Perplexity is a 3d short promo of a futristic character. It was made in a duration of 5 months in which we had to start right from scratch to a finished film with the help of Mr Amit Kare and Mrs Pallavi Apte who both guided us on technical and design respectively. The aim of the project is not only to make a 3d flim but understand the film from the point of different perspective of people and learn the design and technical process, while making the film. We both shared the work equally and had a great experience throughout the project.

Script Mr X is sitting on a chair clicking a button of a TV remote and keeps on changing channels, then suddenly the tv shows an alert message and pictures a turn around view of a spider. He gets shocked and runs towards a huge shelf where he has placed lots of bottles filled with the solutions of super powers of various super heroes. He picks up a bottle and pours the solution on himself which makes him turn to Spiderman. He gets excited looking at himself, pulls a radio towards him and plays the Spiderman song and starts dancing. While he dances to the rhythm of the song he accidentally spins his spider web on the radio and the web gets stuck to it. He tries to shake his hand in order to let it go which also makes the radio make funny sounds but it never goes off. At last he gets irritated and swings his hand upwards causing the radio fall on the loft of the ceiling which makes radio stop playing. He decides to get back the radio, so he looks at his fingers and giggles and starts climbing the wall like spiderman. As soon as he reaches his hand to the radio he sees a real spider. He screams looking at it and falls down. He runs towards the shelf and picks up a bottle which has logo of Wolverine on it and pours it on himself. He turns into wolverine and slides out steel claws from his knuckles. He charges towards the spider and punches the claws on it, but instead of killing the spider his claws gets stuck to a pillar. He tries to pull it out but the claws are stuck too deep in, so he raises his leg on the wall and tries to pull it out with all his might, but instead the whole pillar cracks and falls on him and squeezes him.
Filled with anger he approaches the shelf and pours an other solution which makes him turn into Superman. Then he uses his lazer power which is released from his eyes to destroy the spider, but eventually the spider succeeds in dodging it, instead the pillars, ceiling and wall collapses over him. He pushes all the rocks over him with all his strength which makes one of the rock hit the huge shelf. The whole shelf starts wobbling, he looks at the shelf and gets shocked. A bottle falls from the shelf on him which makes him turn to batman. Then many starts falling which makes him turn to different super heroes. He turns to wonder woman an looks at himself and sees that he is exposed so covers his body with his hands, then he turns into iron man, after which he turns to Shaktimaan. When he turns to Shaktimaan he sees the spider sitting right on his nose, so he screams with fear and the whole shelf collapses over him.
Everything starts trembling, the floor around him collapses down towards the earths core leaving just a small piece of land where he is standing as captain america. Surprisingly he sees even the spider has managed to crawl on that piece of land, looking at it he starts breathing rapidly with fear. He looks here and there and finds out there is no place to run and screams out loud looking at the sky “Piiiiiiiiiidddderrrrrrrr”.
