27/07/15 - Storyboarding and Environment exploration

This week's goal is to develop storyboards for our scenario.  I've already set up a very basic one, seen earlier in this blog.  But here it is again:


  • Tutor has suggested that I look at the source material for inspiration and observe how the shots there were framed and set up.  
  • He also suggested that I compare the character and its color palette with my prop and see how the two of them look beside one another.  
  • This would require me to design a model sheet for the prop itself - not required for this week but probably very handy to have around nonetheless.
  • I need to look into how the prop and general environment will affect the character and its colors, as well as the way that the shots for my sequence are framed.  I'm probably going to need to sketch up a concept for my environment in order to help to establish this.
I do have a very quick pen sketch of how I would like the room to look, however:

A google search of 'ice room' led to the discovery of ice hotels, which have many rooms carved or built with ice.  Looking through them I can see a very distinct palette of cool whites, lighter blues and blue-green/aqua.  Greens, purples and occasionally pinks seem to provide a highlight or tint for most of these.



Elsa's castle from Frozen also presents a nice source of inspiration:
