Storyboard.
Character reference sketches.
Further sketches. Characters were iterations of these sketches.
Concept illustrations for the teenagers bedroom. Inspired by 80's tv shows!
Original concept for each piece was to use a mixed media approach, mixing illustration with photography.
When creating animation tests, I used hundreds of photos like this to test character movement.
This is the final image from the animation. Using one cel for the background and hundreds for each character movement. ALL hand painted !
Final piece, the trailer.
