Background development

Creating the backgrounds for the animation was extremely fun and I think they went well. I really wanted to have a strong consistancy so that you could tell the scenes were set in the same place but I also wanted to put a fair bit of detail in which made it quite difficult to achieve. I used a lot of references of forests and the tv show ‘Nisser’.  (Nisser, 2021)

When I was changing the type of shot e.g. mid shot, low angle etc. of the character in the forest I made sure to check how I had done the shots to make sure there was a consistency between them. I did my best to make sure the lines matched up and you could see that it was the same setting.

I also tried to make sure there was a lot of depth in the shots so that they would feel more real and immersive to the viewer.

Overall, I was very pleased with how the backgrounds turned out. I think they match well and even though it was a lot of work I think it paid off.
