In my 'day job' (an odd way to put it, but a good enough placeholder till I think of some better way to define my income-making activities- I recently worked with some brilliant people on a cross-discipline assignment task.
Students from Creative Writing came up with a short story, which our Animation students turned into a story reel (images on a timeline), and the Digital Media lot created VR and AR outputs which combined and springboarded from that. As a way to demonstrate the process, I made this little illustration.
I've really tried to push a bit more of an abstract style, and I'm pretty happy with the result. Scroll down/swipe across for detailed character closeups and process drafts.
Drafts- working it out
These next three images are my 'thumbnail/brainstorm drafts, figuring out what to include and beginning to rough out placement and characters.
In the end I used the second version and did some tweaking to arrive at this rough, ready for inking and colouring.
Let me know if you found this useful or if you want to know more, and have a good one.
