Matt Painting


I've made the matt painting flat looking to mix both 3D and 2D animation to help with the aesthetic of surrealism and psychedelia.

I am conflicted as to whether i will use the matt painting as a skydome or use separate lighting in the animation to help with the visual confusion of the animation.

I need to work on the weight distribution with this one, but it is supposed to be a tree, inspired by stained glass that's present in one of

It uses a unique mix of costuming, set painting and design to portray that something isn't completely right, making a feel of disconnection to the watching audience.  The film has clearly inspired filmmakers as a lot of new horror tropes at the time were in this film have spanned out to other films, watching the film you realise where Tim Burton may get a lot of his inspiration for a lot of his films and stories as well as other things with his twist endings which is most prevalent in the stop motion film Coraline as Pheleim O'Neil argues on his article about the film 'the theatrical, expressionistic imagery is a perfect fit and has inspired generations of film-makers to take a less literal approach, and to exploit the visual potential of cinema'(1) as many films these days often do, though some do it better than others.
