The Nameless Freedom Fighters: 3D Sets

Line art and concept art activates creative juices, but I'd like the end result to be either be entirely 3D (ala Pixar animation) or live action with all the wiz-bang digital production provides. 

One of the methods I use for story ideas is to alter interesting photos, imagine a situation with characters, and determine what motivates them to be there.  I may overpaint the photo, paint it entirely with modifications, or build a 3D model of the interesting traits and fill in the blanks.

I recently used Blender for the latter process and animated a sweeping camera following a character and it's escorts (represented as retangular boxes) inside what could be a prison, compound, bunker, observatory, etc.  You can get a sense of the environment in this crudely rendered 42 second shot.
