character design part 2- panel descriptions

My words are Create/Destroy

So my story continues as Humphrey the Fuzzalumpha has eaten way to much candy and goes insane and becomes a scientist who goes so mad he CREATES a new potion that goes out of control insane and DESTROYS his whole planet.  As the planet gets destroyed im going to make the panels more and more abstract to represent it all going into chaos. So the panels will go: 1.black and white  2. epressionistic line  3.metallic 4. fluorescence 5. transparency.  I have not completely decided if Im going to stay with the same media throughout all 5 panels or not but Im pretty sure I will.

My first panel is in black and white and it just shows him as a mad scientist creating his potion and going insane.  I used the same media because its just a continuation of his previous life so it felt right to keep the media the same. I tried to make it look like one of the old creepy black and white pictures you might see of mad scientists.

My second panel is going to be expressionistic line, so that i can keep it less abstract and ”simpler” than the others but it will show the emotion of him realizing what he has done and his world starting to get destroyed.

My third panel is going to be metallic. As the planet gets more destroyed it gets more distorted so it will be a wamer color pallette  to show the initial blast of his potion blowing up.  It will also use collage, as things are starting to fall apart but are still held together by a thread.

My fourth panel will use fluorescence as the planet just blows apart, which will be accented by the extreme brightness of the colors.

My fifth panel is going to use transparency  and cubism as the planet is completely fallen apart into abstractness and is starting to dissapear.

heres some of the research i did. This is only like half of it though, because i looked at books too.

Character Design- Story and Panels

 

His name is Humphrey,
And he’s a Fuzzalumphy,
Who lives on a small Hill,
In Wuzzafuzzaville.

symmetric

Wuzzafuzzaville can be found,
On a planet small and round,
In a Galaxy far out in space,
Tis a most peculiar place.

A place untouched by human hand,
in fact, tis a place where humans are banned,
whether size or proportion, nothing makes sense,
Every wall is crooked and every building is immense

geometric

Humphrey loves to dance,
Everytime he gets the chance.
Tap is what he truly loves,
with tails, top hat, and gloves.

Yet sometimes there are those points,
When tap dance dissapoints,
and tis on those rare nights,
that he turns to the disco lights.

Some days, however,
He decides to endeavor,
On a mission rather challenging,
And yet also quite promising.

Such a simple task
And yet also so great,
For when it is done
It does make him au fait

Asymmetric

By now you may be wondering,
What it is about which I am blundering,
Well the task which i speak of is simply reading a book,
And is usually done alone in a small, quite nook.

Now you must learn Humphrey’s greatest love
One of few things in his life he is rather ashamed of
For the one thing from which he can never retreat,
Is anything with sugar, or anything that’s sweet.

He loves to go to the candy shop,
And get a bright swirly lollipop,
Or a giant jawbreaker,
And sweet breads from the Baker.

rythmic

Sometimes he will spend,
A few days on the weekend,
And to the beach he will go,
As long as there is no snow.

natural

But at the end of the night,
When the moon’s shining bright,
And everything goes quite
Except the crickets great riot

Humphrey can always be found,
In his bed sleeping sound.
Awaiting the next day
and the sun’s morning ray.

Project 2: character design

Have you ever seen a Fuzzawuzza? They seem like very shy little creatures when you first get to know them, but as time goes on, you might dicover that they are actually quite fascinating little balls of fun. I am here now to introduce you to one in particular, named Humphrey, who hails from the town of Wuzzafuzzaville and has a agreed to give us a small glance into the everyday life of a Fuzzawuzza.

Humphrey comes off as being a very animate, active character. He loves making people happy and during the day he usually works in a candy shop where he can make little children smile everyday, but not in a creepy way like “the candy man”. When not working in the candy shop, Humphrey usually takes time to himself and works in his garden. At night, he steps out and becomes the life of the party with his love for dancing. He has a special love for anything colorful and bright so he especially loves dancing with disco lights, but, once again, he enjoys making people happy, so he also enjoys entertaining people on stage, mostly with his tap dancing. Sometimes, however, Humphrey likes to just sit at home with a good book and stay to himself. Every night, whether having danced all night or stayed at home by himself, Humphrey goes to sleep nice and early so he can be energized and excited to start a new day.
