TOMB RAIDER CHRONICLES STORYBOARD

[ 11 August 2000 ]

Every good character starts life on the drawing board, where, in Lara's case, pain-staking detail is shaded into a character that explodes onto the gaming scene. These detailed shots illustrate the journey from board to bandwidth as Core Design begin their legendary transformation. The first image pictures an eerie mansion scene illuminated by a lightning bolt flickering down from the storm-filled skies.

Next is the familiar image of Lara Croft, weapons drawn, ready to face yet another adventure in front of prying eyes. A conversation sets the scene for the third image, could it be Van Croy hatching another plan against Lara ? Fourth we see a profile, perhaps a new companion for Lara, perhaps another challenge to overcome in what looks like Eidos Interactives best adventure yet.
