Told ya' I'd get back to posting more Carol and the End of the World eventually! Here's some colour keys of the boss' office: something we discussed early on was how the closed blinds in his office were representative of his mental state and feelings towards the end of the world - literally blocking Keppler out of his view, and we wanted that to be clearly reflected in the lighting of the space even when they weren't on-screen, which is what we were exploring here.

One of my favourite silly little details: a framed photo of Business Men Doing Business Things! Since the lineart I was provided was just a rough, it didn't have a design in the frame, so I just improvised, ha ha - pretty sure we changed it in the final design, though, so enjoy this little peek behind the curtains! Thanks for looking, and watch Carol & the End of the World on Netflix if you haven't already:

More Carol and the End of the World pre-vis: here's the final look as well as the development of colour and lighting of the office bullpen. Our goal was to find a balance between something ethereal while also still being recognizably an office, and it was important to get the look locked down early because thematically it was a big part of the show... plus characters spend a LOT of time here, ha ha!

I always had a certain fondness for the first colour key above , but I think it leaned a bit too "ethereal" and might've ended up feeling too disconnected from the other, more grounded environments.

I think the direction we finally went best suits the needs of the show, which is what's most important in animation where you're not just creating a standalone illustration, but a show that has to work as a whole. Thanks for looking, and watch Carol & the End of the World on Netflix if you somehow haven't already!!
