This composition was drawn in a threatening perspective, heightening the drama of the shot. We pushed this even further by designing the chalkboard to reach the ceiling, so you’d need a ladder to write at the top of it.
In this episode, we focus on creating textures for roof tiles and add growth of moss to give a little green variety throughout.
Here, we painted just a hint of sunshine hitting the darkened rooftop, slightly teasing what’s behind it and hinting what the bird wants our main character to see.
To emphasize the drama of the scene it was used in, we wanted to give this bathroom a cold, sterile and slightly unsettling look. That’s why everything looks clean and symmetrical, and why we designed the faucets to have a strange, yet elegant shape.
There’s something about a drain that automatically feels cold. This shot is drawn in extreme perspective and with a diffuse lighting to convey a dramatic mood. It requires painting stone and metallic textures.
We’re excited to reveal the final poster for our short film ‘From the Snow-Covered Hill’ in this very special episode of ‘Painting Backgrounds for Animation’!
A new ‘Painting Backgrounds for Animation’. This time we tried to film a more detailed background being entirely painted from above.
We designed these creepy looking trees for our short ‘From The Snow-Covered Hill’ to heighten the film’s visual identity and atmosphere, with the shapes referencing the spikes of a fence.
To create a Film Noir-ish look in our @dwddtv animation, we painted backgrounds using just black and white. In this style it’s especially fun to play with highlights of glassware.
