After my FYP tutorial with my tutors I started feeling more comfortable with my ideas. I was starting to get a bit muddled in all my ideas. However, after the discussion I realised I'm better off doing what I enjoy and that's animating/ illustrating little strange/ cute creatures with a comedic streak.
Some artists I'm using for reference are:
Toby Allen
Mike Mitchell
Birdbox Studio Animations: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL02B41658A15B0DF3
What I need to do is find a theme and illustrate the characters around that theme in animate short funny clips around them
Research:
