Week 4 - Last week of pre-production
"History of Animation"- sequence
We have been very busy these last weeks getting the overall design right. Sandra has been working on the pipeline test that is almost finished and soon to be uploaded. Meanwhile Stine created these designs on a light bulb for a sequence in the film. The light bulb is used as an example of different animation styles through time.
Color board
The color keys and tones for the entire film are taking form adding to the different moods in the film.
Pipeline test
This is the preliminary pipeline test for "The Story of Animation". The test is without sound and is the first actual test which means that a lot of changes might come later on in the production.

Meanwhile Stine created these designs on a light bulb for a sequence in the film. The light bulb is used as an example of different animation styles through time.
This is an Emile Cohl (1857-1938) - also called " the father of animation" - inspired drawing. |
Winsor McCay created an animation character called Gertie back in 1914 that Stine incoporated into her drawing of the light bulb. |
Maybe you recognize this? This design is inspired by the third Mickey Mouse film produced called Steamboat Willie (1928). |
Again a Disney inspired style... |
Modern take on how a light bulb would look like when done in South Park cut-out style. |
Stine blended the Aardman characters Wallace and Gromit into this version of the light bulb. |
...and of course a Pixar 3D take on how a light bulb would look like now-a-days. |

Bg - Susanne B. Olesen, Character - Jonas Mølgaard
Below you can see some value studies Stine did during the last week. Nice to see how the final images might look like.

Week 2 - More character designs
Jonas, Stine, Frederik and Sandra are working hard on further exploring different takes for the character designs. We want to draw the main shapes of the characters without outline, then use lines within the coloured shapes. Even though the film is going to be animated in TVPaint, we want to achieve as much as a hand drawn look as possible.
Susanne have been working on color keys this week, it's very nice to get a feel of how we can use color throughout the film, and how it changes depending on the mood of the story. More to come shortly.
