Idea generation - Earliest stages, Space explorers

For extended i wanted to work on a 2D animated short so i wanted to work with people who were effective 2D animators and artists within the class. So i approached Luca and then Yi-Xing to work with.

We then started trying to spitball ideas that would cater to each member of the group. Ideas that we thought could be fun to work on and could work towards world building. Our initial idea was that of space adventures as we saw a potential for this world building and a wide array of colourful characters.

Below are the initial idea sketches that i came up with regarding this idea.



As time went on however the idea didn't have a lot of grounding and nothing was particularly concrete in vision. Ideas were very much all over the place and there wasn't a real set story that was coming forward that could be fit into a short film context.
