I posted my first scene of boards for a Hansel and Gretel story. As I finished up my last story, I was struggling to think of another one. That’s a major issue with me, as I would like to work more, but usually I can’t think of stories to tell and it’s frustrating to set aside time to work every day and you’re struggling to find ideas to work on.
To break the creative block, I thought about fairy tales. Below are a few drawings I did for concept art. I would love for a short film to have the look of an Arthur Rackham illustration, and that’s the look I was going for in these sketches. I’m making several other sketches, trying to imagine the world a little more fully. In storyboards, I want to simplify the look, but this is a good chance to put on an illustrator’s hat and give it a more concentrated treatment.
