Quick Ideas of Backgrounds and Characters

This post has some initial ideas that I produced so that I could develop my characters and backgrounds. Rough ideas are essential for progression in any animation and so by doing this your final ideas can become as strong and effective to the audience as possible. From these pictures below you will able to see my progression throughout the duration of this project and how my designs develop and become more refined.



The above two images were my first attempts at my backgrounds design, however I felt that there wasn't really a style or continuity flowing between both images, I initially wanted to produce all my backgrounds by hand however after doing another attempt shown below, I felt that Digital painting was a better and more efficient approach to my background production. 



As you can see these images are incomplete however this was purely due to the fact that I found better ways to producing my designs and so did not want to waste unnecessary time producing things I may not have used.

Hopefully just from looking at these initial designs you may be able to see some characters beginning to develop.
Keep checking out what I get up to to see my developments!!
