Shadowrun matrix sequence

I'm working on a mixed movie. Shadowrun fan-movie project and all. I'm in the pre-alpha phase of creating a matrix sequence to use in the movie. It's an internal system of a secret Saeder-Krupp biotech facility.

I'm still open for suggestions about the "feel" that Matrix system should have. Should I go for the darkly-organic look, mixing ideas from Alien and Warhammer 40K, or should I go for a more technical look, emphasizing that the matrix system itself is not the most important part of the facility?

-this place waits for a cool sig, but I'm too lazy-

It really depends on how close to the Shadowrun system that you want to be - from everything that was in the rule and source books, Johnny Mnemonic and Tek Wars came closest to that style of virtual world.

No question is a stupid question if you don't know the answer - If you need help (and you can find us), ask the (Sens)A-Team.

yeah, Johnny Mnemonic style would be closer to what the Deckers ran in Shadowrun.

I think that is true, or maybe Tron like.

Mind you, organic would be cool.

Alternativly alternate, if its in the 'eye' of the decker - individual deckers could interprate the same scene in different ways.

Yeah, that would be cool, as i doubt the matrix would look the same to everyone.

The matrix system itself will get a very clean, technological feeling, but the ICE will get a very organic feeling. Semi-translucent when I'm adventurous, else just a slimy tentacle feeling.

I'll keep you updated on the project status. I don't expect anything useful in the next weeks though. My real life catches up with me.
