Environment Design

Project Description

For this project you will create the look of your concept's environment/landscape.

Benchmarks

Gather at least 3 benchmark images showing the style you are aiming for. All three should show the same visual style so I know where you are going for the final look of yours.

Thumbnails

You will create at least 9 grayscale numbered thumbnails exploring different compositions, locations, angles, etc.

Color Keys

We'll choose which detailed grayscale sketch is working best and take it to the next step, which will be to figure out the color palette and mood of your environment.

For this, you'll explore 3 different color keys by adding color to the grayscale image using the techniques discussed in class. These different color keys can show different moods and/or times of day.
