'gora'

film stills..

some more..

these are a few stills from the film.

this bit of the film is done. the end is still unfinished.

backgrounds are partly hand done, partly digital,

animation is traditional 2d hand drawn on paper and then colored digitally in 2 tone.

there's one sequence of the film with a slightly different treatment.

i guess u can tell which is which.

the characters.

finally when the story froze, then started the preproduction.

these are the character sketches

the beards

the bearded ones in my story

the kickstart

the very beginning was when i kickstarted with the idea of beards. (one of my fetishes) these were some of the possible character sketches that led to different storylines, some worked for me, some didnt. it's been really long since i last updated my blog. have been working on my diploma film.

its not finished yet, but a chunky part is done and so here are some tit bits. starting from the very beginning, this is how it evolved :)

Creature design

For a 10 minute sequence in the upcoming animation feature film 'ARJUN', i designed a monster character. it combines features and personalities of 2-3 animals. a very interesting process that started from wildlife gazing and took me through model making, colour palettes, and so much more....

a fun extensive project!
