I’m not very experienced in background or level design and have very little knowledge of perspective aside from trying to make things look correct to my eyes. However, I tried to make some interesting backgrounds for my animation, although I can definitely see some issues with it now that I’m looking back at it.

Our group had agreed towards the start of this task that the overworld would be more of a dark colour palette, so I was trying to keep the colours more muted and dull than I usually would. I also had a look at the main colours used in Manny’s animatic so that I could try and keep mostly in theme with the background colours that the rest of my group had used for the overworld, so mine wouldn’t make it look like a completely different place.
