Animation Practice Backgrounds

                       

These are selection of images I've collected as    references & inspiration for the animation practice background project. The image above, designed by Celine Choo, is a more simplistic style with little shadow & detail, however the layers in the image would be highly effective - but there may also be issues in details to animate.            

    The cityscape using warm colours is a more 

complicated design,  which would  be more 

complex to split into layers, but there would be

a lot of detail that would be possible to animate. 

For example the flags & materials hanging from

the buildings.

The Celine Choo landscape to the right is more complex than her previous design but the use of layers is less obvious, but again there are more details which would be easily animated.

The landscape to the left, by illustrator Fernando Juarez is one of my favourite illustrations due to the foreground image of the topsy turvy house sitting upon the tree top, with the red kite floating above it. The background layers would consistent of the water, the hills, the sky & the clouds - a detail which could be animated.




 

                       The illustration to the right, again, is a more  complex design which would be more difficult to split into layers, but the opportunity to animate areas is abundant due
to the use of waterfalls.
