Objective of this illustration is to composite lines and shapes to best represent the song motion. So i’ve basically use different thickness of lines and bubble circles to illustrate out. I’ve only use one color for the line work, red. Using its shade and light, I have created an more dynamic line work. And finish it with a turquoise gradient as to bring out the sinking mood. done in illustrator & photoshop.</p>http://zuopingportfolio.tumblr.com/post/12926034697http://zuopingportfolio.tumblr.com/post/12926034697Thu, 17 Nov 2011 23:10:28 +0800<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/31368920?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0" width="400" height="224" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p>A short observation of a train travel from station to station.

To be honest this part is pretty tough.<br/><br/>Afters, i would cast some basic shadows and highlights on the character. For the background because it is stock photo, I filter it to make it more matt-painted feel (hopefully, spend quite much time on this one too).<br/><br/>Finally, added some texture over the character, make it unclean!
