just turned this in for class... i got some good feedback that i think will make it shine a little bit better, and establish characters that much more. any thoughts from you guys?
I think you can tweak your colors a little to help direct the eye. For instance, make the door stand out more in the beginning. Right now my eye is drawn to the bright blue sky and trees on the left and don't really notice the door. Same inside the room, the values are very similar. As soon as the orange plant and blue window show up, my eye goes to them. Try to do something similar with the things you want your audience to look at. Doesn't have to be bright or screaming, just use color to your advantage.
The first image of all the aces confused me. I thought they were the cloud's cards being held backwards; not a POV shot. Made sense later but wasn't clear up front.
Perhaps have the black character get a frustrated, impatient?
thanks for the input. i actually have gone back already to have the cards go up in the frame before they are just there. ill give the sky color a tweak and not go in on the door so much. think it would be too over the top to have the black shape guy round eyes and they get thinner later to communicate anger?
the assignment was a character that tries to do something, fails, repeat with failure, and then succeeds. i may have undermined the project a little bit, but i thought it was clever enough to work. there wasnt any lip sync required, but its just too much fun not to use those mouth shapes lol.
Before I give my two cents, I would like to know what the requirements for this project were.
