Been working with one of my brothers on his final film project, “Break” (which is loosely based on Euripides’ Medea, and then more loosely inspired by the graphic novel version of Medea I did my sophomore year of college).
The uncolored storyboards are more of the quick and dirty type – the “i only just got our final shots today and can you do these storyboards overnight, please?” kind. I kind of like working on that kind of deadline, but it usually results in the less than perfect storyboards (and this is not super acceptable for portfolios and the like). So I spent the portion of today NOT spent searching for jobs to apply to and applying to them, working on some loose color ideas for page 2 (which is full of gore, so of course I went for that). I was trying out a vector-ish look which I sort of like, until I did the Lucretia smiling panel in a more painterly style (but still with super high saturation), so now I kind of want to go back and do it all in that style…
we’ll see.
