Hey I made revisions based off of the crits I got from Kanako and Justin. First I want to know if the overall composition/design is working and I am curious how the lighting is working. Also if anyone has any suggestions on other types of lighting I should try that would be awesome. Thanks!

Hi Katie,
ReplyDeleteI think this one matches with the story much better. It would be my fault, but you might want to bring back some foresty elements because it looks more rocky place. About the lighting, I would like to see lighting from the inside, too. Are those eyes windows or paints on the wall? If it's a window and have a light inside, there would be reflection on the arch and the wall. What if there are lights on the path to the castle? What if there are up lights? huge torches? What if it's a stormy night? She is a witch, so she may have a power to have a mysterious lighting.
Hey Katie, it's looking a lot scarier and more foreboding. It might be a personal preference, but I think the 2nd foggy one with back lighting feels more menacing. A lightning storm might be interesting, or some darker clouds even, try it out. The cut out on the rock castle has a shape similar to your tree foliage, but i think you'll probably attack that later on. I might add a hint of really distant trees in the back. I hope that helps.
ReplyDeleteKatie, I like the second one a lot. There's a lot of atmosphere going on and the whole thing is pretty ominous. The three mountain peaks in the background are pretty similar though. Also the value of the peak on the right is too dark compare to everything else in the comp, especially the rocky formation in the foreground left. Even though I like the second comp overall, I think the moon on the first comp is really interesting. The way you made it really small with halo is a very nice touch. Maybe you can marry that element to you second comp...?
ReplyDeleteAwesome, your guys crits help a ton, thank you!
