To keep the storyboard artistic an neat i have to consider the placement of horizon line, not to have lines running through characters head, every panel should have a balance by deviding it diagnaly.

Week 1 + 2

The first week was pretty chilled, and did some concept design stuff. I found an easy way to deal with concept design. i found that it is easy to create the genaral shape first then start working it out from there. Making sure that the mechanics is working properly, then have to make sure that the charecter exists in the real world, so i have to think about history of the character, the overall mood that the characters going to set to the viewers. If the concept design is an interior or exteriour i have to set the atmosphere and make it belivable.
