Backgrounds One

During our pre-production, I am going to be designing the backgrounds for our animation.

We met up and created mood-boards to try and hone in on the art direction of our animation.  We all were inspired by the semi-painterly and textured backgrounds of Gravity Falls and Samurai Jack.
 

The first sketch i painted was for the underwater scene we later scrapped. I think that losing this shot is a shame as it's more dynamic than a straight on shot but it's not vital for the story and puts an odd pause when the action is supposed to be reaching peak. 

  • I want to keep the textures of brush strokes but line it to match the characters
  • the same world
  • bright colours


  • researched into exotic foliage to suit prehistoric setting
  • odd shapes but uniform 


Tonal painting testing composition and texture.
