This is what we think of this piece called: Visual Development illustrations for Madagascar.

First of all: Cool image! It has a nice evening feel to it and there is definetly something going on between those two.
The reason why I chose this picture is because of the difficulty of creating a visual story when it's about a story everybody knows. Is this lion licking the zebra while he's dreaming because I see it or because I know it from the film?

I agree, cool image, love the colors and the evening feel, clear story, a lion is licking a zebra, and that scares the bazjizza's out of the zebra. My thought was the lion is licking... , but can this be pushed maybe? the licking is a strong story ingredient, so it should be staged really clearly, I had to try it out, so...
Now I ask myself, what is the best position for the tongue if it's licking the zebra? Does the zebra turn into a popsicle now? Or is there no difference at all?

Nice move with the teeth Dirk! I really think this adds some danger to the licking!

You know what's funny about this one.
ReplyDeleteI really wanted to push the contact with the tongue and hide further, you know with a bit of squashed skin. While it always got a laugh in art reviews we ultimately pulled back.
I have no excuse for the hand however. It seemed anywhere I put it was awkward or indecent.
Thanks for the great observations.
