Here we have the big bad dude defying all rules and whatnots.
It was created during the R&D traject to test the deformations and visual style of the film.

Mood boards

For this film we have chosen for a low-polygon graphical look. So the best thing to establish the overall vibe of the film, was to create some illustrator art boards defining this style of non-curved shapes. The initial moodboards will need to be translated into a 3d world, and the results of these tests will follow soon. Here a small selection of the boards without revealing to much ofcoarse.

Character design

The character designs as we pitched them basicly remained unaltered for the film.

The concept for the styling of the main character was inspired by the look of our shadow in the califorian sun. The deformed proportions look somewhat cartoon-esque, with a tiny head on this stretched body and those big hands. Which we think works really awesome and exactly what we were looking for.

We wanted the main character to be really recognizable and have his personal style in clothing. The design and colors are inspired by old russian cosmonaut suits. Look at those orange pants, who doesn’t want one of those!

Check this pair being sexy.

Style composition of our hero, and that yellow bastard.
