Coming together

All in the details. Things are coming together!

Our talented designer friend, Etsu, is helping us out to shape the overall design aesthetic by taking on most of the interior backgrounds. Looking beautiful!
















Hands, drawn by Mike Smith. After looking at the test walk cycle, Mike decided that the king and worker characters needed more.

Ramshackle - Early Concept Art

The new short film from One Stuck Duck is finally underway. The original script has undergone some collaborative changes by the group and after a few months of initial storyboarding and design, animation has finally begun. The animatic is done and the sound design is currently underway as well as the music composition. We wanted to post some of the artwork that has been generated up to this point to provide a little taste of what is to come early next year when we plan to screen the film. Character evolution and background designs will kick off the blog but hopefully soon we'll add some animation clips to enjoy.

Thanks all for following and check back periodically for updates.








Here are some early concept sketches or characters and backgrounds.
