EXPERIMENT: Kubrik

Also gonna do this with Stanley Kubrik as well.
Lots of red and quick cuts to related scenes/objects that aren't acknowledged in the main comic cells.

strange colours and the monolift.

EXPERIMENT: Wes Anderson.

A running joke in our house that we all speak and act with the indifference and odd (sometimes abrupt) sentences. I got really excited about applying this to comics. I'm going to do more research into the films of director Wes Anderson to gather more features to replicate. I'm also going to apply his sense of composition and colour palette which i've always loved.
I'm really excited about this and can see lots of opportunities.
I think it's quite and challenge to get across that the characters look expressionless and indifference on purpose not from lack of skill when portraying emotion.

JUST THIS

New experiment. Also a story that i wrote after one evening in my student house. I thought it would make a good basic starting point for experiments in form and style. Possibly structure.

I went on to start story boarding it roughly....

Structure and Colour

Different Colours: Different Feel

An experiment in how the colours change the mood of a piece.

This one was originally mainly blue but i changed it to wackier colours so the image then too seemed wackier and full of more energy.

 

 In this case the top one (an image taken from my FMP) is the original using 'normal' colouring of the character. I made it blue to make a more solem atmosphere. The colours also blend better together making it more useful to work better as a cell from part of a comic with a colour sceme like this.

Brush Pen Lines

 I like to see brush pen marks. Though recent experiments in my FMP i have discovered i also think they look nice blown up bigger. So...i'm going to do a experiment in style and possibly also in a narrative form with this.
