Description

Required: Set designers, CGI modellers, Camera crew, Costume designers, etc

As for the ark ship interior - please note, this is an original creation and not merely taking the O'Neil cylinder. An O'Neil cylinder colony is designed to work inside our own solar system, in near Earth and near Sun space, by taking advantage of light from the Sun for functioning of the biosphere colony. This Centauri Princess ark, on the other hand is an insterstellar bound craft that I personally hand crafted back in 2004:

This makes it very difficult to create the curved interior of specific (6 x 9 mile) proportions... which is where the CGI expertise comes into its own and I really hope I can get help from all you experts out there :)

O'Neill cylinder?

Looks like you intend the ark to be something similar to an O'Niell cylinder?

I tried to draw the insides of one ones. I gave up after a while, figuring out how the perspective worked was giving me a splitting headache...

Specific tasks

Typically you will get more people to pay attention and help you if you post specific tasks. Instead of asking for CGI modellers you might want to ask for a specific space ship design for example. Wreckers will help you when they know what you need help with.
