4th Year Begins

Starting to figure out where I am aiming with my Honors project I am looking to base a project in 2D Illustration or Concept Design for games and movies.

3D modelling and animation have been used in 2D animated cartoons and movies such as the Batman: Sub Zero and the Iron Giant. In recent times 3D along with Matte Painting has been making its way into illustration. 1 possible way to go with this might be to explore how 3D can be used for comic books and graphic novels.

Another direction for the project in the field of illustration could be to look into the process of  taking a series bible through to a finalized comic/graphic novel. Using source material to design visual elements and take these into final covers and sequential pages ready for publishing.

The third idea for the project is to  do a large design project. Taking a series bible and designing as much of the characters, locations, vehicles, creatures and props in universe. This would give the opportunity to research and discover new ways to design visual elements of any story and start to build the universe.

Next I will do some initial research in order to develop these 3 ideas before speaking to my lecturers for feedback.
