Visual Narrative - Tell an untold story - Development

Developing my idea:

After looking at some artist and reflecting on my mock up book. I wanted to develop some of the buildings I had drawn in my story boards. I needed to work bigger and sketch out some looser designs to get a feel for the shapes and pattern in the medieval style of Camelot.

• I tried including elements of the theme park, like the food court. But I wanted to let my way of drawing to take over the shapes I had learnt from the photographs.

• These where coloured with the flat nib ink pen. I like the scratchy and uneven effect they give. but I feel like the colours are slightly dull. 
• It was a yellow ink but it appears more orange, I feel like the bright yellow gives a better effect.  
• The panels and pattern parts of the building look good. I want to keep using these shapes and make them more abstract.

Paint pens:

• I experimented with using paint pens to colour my designs.
• The colour quality is much more vibrant and solid.
• The blue, green/turquoise and yellow combinations looks good. I think it suites the theme well and is looking exciting and abstract.

• I like the way the buildings are warping. It looks characterful, I like the random structures better than the basic block buildings.

• These where quick sketches in pen and pencil, I was playing around with different shapes and structures for the buildings.
• I like the look of the long terrace buildings. They will work well stretching across my scene.
• I like how the lines within the building are getting denser and complex.

• Im really pleased with this, I like how the outline looks, it looks sharp and quick and works well with the paint pen. I want to consider this media for my final design.

• I tried a small scene with the same way of outlining. I like the look of, the atmosphere is right and the vibrant colours look work well against the textured surroundings.

• This sketches are bulgy and have different sorts of shape, I'm not sure I like them. I tried out having them on hills inspired slightly by the Mike Mignola sketch.

• These are funky and look very abstract. These have gone a long way from the others and I think I like the look of them. There are shapes from the theme park that have developed into more exciting patterns and structures.

Poster:

• We did a quick a poster in class a while ago that highlighted what our story was about and what happens.
• I put together some images that symbolise the story.
