Thumbnail - Mystery / Crime
Base Design and Colour Variation
The initial sketch idea was to highlight some sort of Crime-esque approach. We wanted to put Vignette filter into this look, so a VHS- 90s crime music video look.
Drafted art and Colour theory
We then tried to make colour pallete variations. I played a lot of Colour Theory into this work. Opposite colours, variation of shades, and what these colour look like when a filter is added.
Variation of Sketch
We then went through sketch variations. We brainstormed ideas involving ‘Detective work’ and ‘Crime Solving’. The Detective boards we see in movies were the main framework we used. These intricate RED LINES used to connect the pieces of evidence and crime give rise to the title of the song 'MadMan', as the red strings highlight MM. The visual representation of these intertwined elements captures the essence of the song's theme, setting the stage for a compelling narrative of mystery.
Final Edit - Variation
Filter definitely played a big role in this work. I tried to see variation of light and shade. The RED added a lot of shadow, but without it, the White brings out most of the main Red string. We looked for more option and variations in style. We finally agreed upon adding texture and brighten the Red strings.
