Vehicle Ride Pattern Study

The Client wanted to pitch his idea to an investor and this time the Client had just 1 day so did I to visualize his idea. This includes requirement gathering story-boarding and animation. I had few hours for iteration. the Client requested for a 3D output but considering the time to model, animate and render I suggested 2D animation I said a GIF would be a best bet for a presentation which he could explain as the GIF reveals itself.
He said he would want to see how it would look like, so I requested 2 hours for creating a Visual sample of the same, he explained it to me in steps of what he wanted to be visualized. He liked the visuals but he requested few colors on the GIF.
The Final work was well appreciated you could scroll the the end to see it directly. the brain child of 24hrs and 4 ISD calls and 5 emails ;) 
STEPS :
1. A car(vehicle) running on road/freeway with or with out buildings 
2. It reaches a garage where the boot of the car is opened by a trained Technician, he takes out the drive which has all the driving data the car make and driving pattern of the driver.
3. the driver is connected to a workstation which then copies the data and uploads it to the central server.
4. The data could be retrieved by the client from any location in U.S.A 


Below you could see the stages in which I animated the car giving an illusion of movement.
Using speed lines and recurring road lines.
ABOVE - the car moving through the freeway
BELOW - The car at the garage(which was later edited in the final video)

BELOW- is the final GIF based in the 4 steps narrated by the client. I did few visual tweaks in the final video.
