To show distance in an image pale colours are used in the badground as objects that are far away become blurred and darker colours are used in the foreground as objects are seen as being more focused.
After getting some feedback on my story idea I chose to re-write to try and develop it further. Story Idea - Re-write A young girl and her father, a light house keeper, are out fishing at sea and all seems fine. However, when they are going back to shore a storm suddenly appears and the boat hits the rocks throwing them both out in to the sea. Years later, in the present, we see that the girl has survived the accident and has now grown up. She is seen standing in front of her father’s grave showing that he didn’t survive, it is also shown that she has become a light house keeper herself to carry on his memory and to protect others from the same fate. However, the grief of her loss is still with her as she now spends all of her days and nights locked away in her light house on her own with none to talk to.

Walk Cycle test from Rhia Crouch on Vimeo . Been trying to work on Moom's walk for a skit but I'm not sure what else to do before I put him in to the screen so I can work out him swimming and coming out of the water. He is meant to walk as if he is weigh down by the goo and also wobbels a little bit. I know the eyes are off and there seems to be a phantom animation going on with his right hand that I can't work out.
After having some time to step away from my work I can now see some of the parts that I need to work on to complete my animation. One of the starting points is reworking the characters' faces so at they fit more with the characters' overall design. This would mean changing the whole shape of the eye along with using a different set of colours and textures to make them sit better on the face. When I get a better idea of the colours that I am going to be using I can start to work on the overall eye shape. Note: Both of the number 1s in the image below are the original designs that I have been working with. Moon face colour tests Sun face colour tests
Nice! I love #13, look into pushing the atmospherics in the background to further build on the idea of distance in your work :)
