Environmental Storytelling:3 Scenes




Sketches of environments during a few times out of the college.The first scene is in Leeds University where I found it's a urban scene compare to the other ones. The internal scene is in Costa Coffee which would be a great example of interacting with characters, as it is a social environment. The other external scene is the Leeds Art Gallery in the town centre, it remains the elder architecture style than the other scenes.

Environmental Storytelling:The Last Door


The last door is a video game that is presented in an pixel animation way, it is successful on various aspects, and the environmental storytelling especially stands out. Although it is in a pixel style, the environments are drawn in a delicate standard. The style is not only limited to this dark tone but some lighter ones and black&white as well.

Environmental Storytelling:Paprika


Paprika is an animation produced by Satoshi Kon, it is a abstract animation with a clear story line. One of the aspects I love about this film is the environments of it. For example in the top screen shot, it is an urban city style background, but with tons of random other elements, which makes the scene a collides between the objects and the environment. This is also demonstrate in the bottom shots. It was done in a realistic style, but it collaborate well with the characters and other elements within the animation, and the environment itself has narrative as well. 




Environmental Storytelling:External&Internal

I chose a few scenes which include both internal and external scenes, which I found has contrast between themselves, such as ancient and urban, wide and narrow.
