Premise: Moon Design Redo

This is a re-design of Moon after I had got some feed back about the overall design. There are some elements that I'm not happy with, such as the crown and hands, but I do plan to go back and change them.

    can you try something new with the 'tail' - think of her as having legs in there covered by a long floating trail - for example, if you imagine the dress is essentially a long cone with a scalloped bottom edge...

    I think you need to think even bigger in terms of exaggeration and attenuation of her shape - I also think you should make those crescent moons bigger - create a series of iterations of this same character in which you REALLY push the exaggeration - so a version with HUGE crescent moons and then a version with smaller, but still BIG crescent moons - and a version where you put a massive long/wide cone dress on the bottom of her - think more theatrically - for example, imagine that her skirt is like this lovely big cone that is illuminated within by swirling moving shapes like one of these...

    and maybe considering giving her long 'evening gloves' instead to enhance her sophistication?

      Hi Rhia

      going on what Phil said, check out this beautiful music video by an Estonian artist named Kerli, notice the dress - how it glows and pulsates and the way that the hair is bulbous like a flower about to bloom, Kerli has always been inspiring at conceptualising the meaning behind her lyrics through her visuals (which she directs and makes all the costumes for) - it might inspire something in your designs, you should watch the making of her music videos too :)

@Alan Collaboration: Walk Test

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.

Story Ideas - Re-write

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. However, a young man appears at her door one day and introduces himself as having moved into the old fisherman’s cottage by the shore. He tries to befriend her, ...
