Style: Format



Long discussion regarding final format, in order to focus in design. Hannah and I agree that this would be flexible in directorial decisions eg all CG/all live/incorporating other techniques.

Pitch somewhere in between Coraline and Alice in Wonderland (2010)

ENVIRONMENT-  CG-scapes with real life interactive elements eg sets for character close-ups. Real/exaggerated textures, over-textured, handmade look.

CHARACTER-  Puppets, stop-motion. Exaggerated features and textures. Filmed on green-screen with sets/props for interaction (like A Shadow of Blue) Movement like a puppet is utilised for style and using the material to further the narrative eg Hanging people in Charn like hung marionettes.

COLOUR-  London; de-saturated sepia. Charn; de-saturated black and white with flash of red.


This may seem a long way from my origional vision of complete GCI (like Alice in Wonderland) but after discusion I now think this is a much nicer idea, producing an effective gritty design full of texture and interest would be more interesting to see and more interesting/challenging to design for.
