OUGD503 - Studio Brief 02 - Test Experiment

To ensure that the final backgrounds worked effectively with the character designs, some initial character designs were placed within the second scene whereby the children are climbing the rocky steps to the top of the moors. The scene was composed in a way where one the youngest child is rushing ahead of the others. Based on this experiment with composition, it was found that the illustrative style of the characters worked well in linking with the aesthetics of the background since both use elements of texture within their design. One initial worry in terms of this was that, because both use texture, the characters could potentially get distracted amongst the background. However, the more digital approach to character production and through the addition of drop shadows, it was found that this made the characters really stand out from the backgrounds whilst still allowing there to be links between the their styles.
