Since I have decided on creating a 2D advert, I have decided to do some research on the aesthetic I want to go for. I am thinking of sticking with my graphic design-esque look as I do enjoy making this type of animation and love the colour payoff as well as drawing in Photoshop. Therefore as my last big project, I want to take what I like and push myself even further than ever before.
But what kind of 2D graphic look do I want? This is what I started to think about, and my first choice to explore was through Pinterest. Pinterest helps me find images that look like each other but are from different medias and artists, so is great for inspiration and idea generation.
I made a pin board with a similar aesthetic but one that I feel like I want to create work similar to. I LOVE bright colours, and what better way to catch someones eye for an advert than playing around with colour schemes. I usually don't plan my colour palettes out, I just see what fits what, but perhaps I will try this for my animations because I am really enjoying seeing cool colours together with a pop of yellow, or visa versa!
I really liked the artwork that didn't have any black line work in them, just simple colour blocking for shadowing. I usually keep my 2D animations head on, especially for my COP3 artefacts, but I would like to explore incorporating more depth and angles as a new challenge and to strengthen my skill set as an animator. Composition is an area I forget about even though I say I am going to consider it, so this will be one of my big goals for the module and it will begin in pre-production.
Here are some examples that I want to take inspiration from:
