Room development

I found a composer to work on the film with me..! I put together a little package for him to help him understand the atmosphere and "feel" for each of the rooms. I included some keywords that came to mind went thinking about the character and space, as well as a brief description of the scene. I won't include the one I did for Room #6 (the star wars kid) yet, since the scene is still missing a lot of development in comparison to the others. Some of the room designs are more finalized than others, but I figured it would help him anyway. After I did this I figured it would have helped to do something similar in the earlier stages of planning for the film :p

le magic boom!

sneak preview of a little magic happening :)

gertrude's room

some changes in the design of the lady's room..
don't mind the fact that she doesn't have any legs, she will I promise! :)

looks update

Well, Some of the designs and animations are starting to come alive so I figured I could put them together with at least a snapshot of the characters in the rooms. More changes underway soon :)

Inspirations

The following are some amazing pieces that I admire greatly and have in one way or another influenced my work (here's to someday making something this good!)

Mexican re-visit

some touch ups and changes on the mexican character. As much as I like the square zarapes (ponchos), I think this design allows for more flexibility when animating. Also, it's more integrated with the altogether-pencilness of the body, I hope.

la gordis

getting to know this character a little better, her anatomy is a bit of a mystery to me still.. I'm not sure if she'll be purple, I kind of like it though!
