Noises Noises Noises

Late again. Sorry. This week have been following up on sounds. Have sent script to actress to play Hermaphroditie she is a professional but fortunately a friend so getting very high quality for free. Yay. Also sent brief through to composer who has already sent through a demo for the exciting/ matinee inspired intro and credits music. It is good, lots of brass etc sounding very 50's but with some programmed beats too. Not sure if I can post on here will attempt tonight or tomo.

Other than that have been trying to organise a pipeline so that I can specify exactly what tasks I should be completing and when, as a lack of focus has been an issue of late.

I also noticed the new Herron ad this week. It has the same background I will be going for in the 'comic panel' 'lithograph' thing so that will be good as a direct example of what I want to do and also how to do it. This is good 'cos I was aware of what I wanted but not sure how to go about it exactly, the ad will be pointing me in teh right direction.

Character Designs

So welcome to Hermaphroditie ('Hermie') and Velvet Fist. These are the character designs from Yen. Hermie is almost spot on but I think VF needs some adjustment; longer legs, wider shoulders, shorter torso and just a little more 'squarish'. But these are very close and show you who we have been talking about all this time. Welcome aboard guys.

Colour Mood Board

Ok so I thought the first mood board was a little unfocussed. It incorporated elements of design, tone, architecture, etc instead of just focussing on colour. So I have done another one deadling with just the colour palette. These are the colours I'm wanting to use; blues, greys, greens and pinks but as you can see everthing is bleached and muted. i have sourced images from old films and faded photographs, I am wanting this vintage look. This is a clearer example of the colours. I still think the first one gives an idea of the piece as a whole, but this one is a little more focussed.

Apologies

Apologies to fans and non fans a-like I have been away at Aussi Masters National Swimming Champs in Tassie (5 G, 3 S & 2 B for those keeping score, which I was) and not working on my project.

This will be rectified tomorrow when some character drawings (done before I left) and some other stuff will be uploaded.

Timings and final designs for backgrounds should be be in stone by end of this week and also added. Probably should be already but, they're not.
