Animator/Filmmaker Analysis

Filmmaker Analysis: Wes Anderson

Wes Anderson is an American Filmmaker who known for the unique storytelling and visual style of his films.

His films utilise a pastel colour palette, with a visually distinct brightness, saturation and hue. It creates a feeling of unreality, but not an uncomfortable one. Wes Anderson films are not known for their realism.

Anderson makes use of symmetry for a sense of harmony and balance. A character is often shot centre frame, and when there are multiple, they mirror each other across the shot.

Anderson’s films require heavy editing, with each shot often being a mish-mash of the best parts from various takes in order to create the exact visual image Wes wants. In Asteroid City, one shot’s sky was replaced by the sky of another shot because it looked better to Wes’ vision. This goes on.

Animator Analysis: Sony Pictures Animation

(this specifically about the style seen in the Spiderverse series and The Mitchells Vs The Machines, given the immense variety the studio has.)

In both The Mitchells Vs The Machines and Into The Spiderverse, a mix of 2d animation and 3d animation is utilised for a unique style. Often the characters are 3d models, but then have textures, details that are animated on them in a 2d.

In Into The Spiderverse and its sequel, Across the Spiderverse, it’s used to bring a comic style to the film, through its use of action lines, sound effect Text, even transcribing a character’s dialogue or thoughts into a caption box. The Spiderverse films are credited as influencing many other 3d/2d mixed films post-release.

In Mitchells, 2d animation is also used to represent Katie’s imagination and view of the world, (which also references her artistic skills) to contrast it with her 3d reality.

Baldur's Gate 3 - Animated?

Trying to imagine the characters if they were designed for an animated series (like Vox Machina, or Castlevania).

I just think that would be neat.

(Boys first 'cause Karlach's outfit is gonna take forevah to draw and simplify, I just know it!)

And here's my post for the poll I've made with a Gale fanart. I decided to just give him a full new outfit which was fun for me to create. I was surprised the first character chosen on the poll wasn't Astarion, since he's very popular, but I'm glad the people who seem to follow me like Gale so much, since there might be more content with him later on on my blog.

just saw the LA httyd for the 2nd time and omg it hits so hard !!! I love almost everything abt it and the only complaints i have are small things really like character quirks and small irrelevant scenes.

Over all, my biggest complaint is that i think they leaned too far into the “Live action” part. I would have preferred if they kept the dragons design but just went for a realistic art style!! But the new designs are fantastic if you don’t compare them to the animated designs!!

Okay so quick Goemon Tangent!

Here are my favorite designs of him!

Please watch this video too!! It's great! And he is scrumptious here! Go to 0:38! Also watch the movie!

Aside from how hot he is here *ahem* I like that Monkey Punch wanted to have Goemon be mixed (like me)! Still rooted in his culture, but you can tell he comes from a mixed background and I find it interesting!

Props to those who color Goemon with tan or brown skin! He's still beautiful regardless as long as he's Goemon!

As for my least fave design:

I don't hate this one, but I feel the design is off. Like, are they trying to go for Monkey Punch's notes about how Goemon was originally a 17 year old in the manga? Cause he looks more younger here.

The details that bother me is mostly his face shape and hair. I like how his other iterations have more floofy long hair!

I end with how I draw him! Combining my favorite designs!
