Titles and colour schemes

It's always really hard to find the right title for a film. I've re-worked the previous fake poster, changing the title and tweaking the colour scheme. If anyone looking at them has a prefered title or colour scheme then can you let me know? It would be most appreciated.

3rd Year film fake poster

Currently I'm trying to put a B-movie spin on my next film. To that end, I decided to put together a fake poster for the film in the style of a 1950s sci-fi poster. The title of the film comes courtesy of my good friend Luke Cecil.

Hope you like it!

New Film progression

With work slowing down a bit now I've found some time to further develop my idea for my next film. Here are some updated character designs, a concept for a possible colour style, and some ship designs. I hope you enjoy

Now that the Glammies awards are over I am now allowed to post my final, completed film. I am pleased with the end result and feel that the work has paid off. I was very glad to see everybody's work up on the big screen and though I didn't win my category, the person that did win was more than deserving and I was happy to lose to such a great film.


Anyway, here is the final version of my film, I hope you enjoy.

Fundraser - Glamorgan Animation "Art of" book

To raise funds for the end of year awards ceremony and celebrations, some of the 3rd year students of our course are putting together an "art of" book filled with sketches and comic strips and characters from as many people from the course as possible. This is my contribution to the book. "Space Detective fighting Robber--Bots in Asteroid Belts!"
Not sure why...

Noir Concept

This is just a very quick, rough idea of the style I have in mind for my next project.
I am in two minds still about whether to go for black and white or subtle use of colour. Clearly more development is needed but I wanted to get this idea out of my system so I can push it forward.




Thanks

Next big project!

I've been mulling an idea around my head for the past couple of weeks for my next project. I have been very interested lately in detective stories and thrillers, particularly noir stories. I have begun preliminary research and done some sketches in the style I had in mind. I wanted to move to more simple characters, and focus more on the mood and body language of the characters. I also want my next film to be more filmic, utilising more backgrounds and a full narrative. Despite this, charcter interaction will still be a big focus, only not to the extent of my current project.

For the moment, here are some of the images I found during my research. These are just a few of the classic shots from films such as "The Maltese Falcon" (1941) I have already found some inspiration for the story and shots and hope to move this forward during the summer months.
