Menegerie Set Finalized (ish)

Finalized (ish) of the menegerie set. I’m actually planning on going back and working on these more. But for now, Menegerie set of Childhood Fears. Shadows, Basement, and Bedroom.

Poor child with a flashlight.

Menegerie Set WIP

WIP shots of remixing the third menegerie set with the bedroom fears of children as well as thickening some more line weight on the two previous sets. With the third menegerie, it was misinterpretted that the bed was a chair so I ended up switching up the whole set to try and get a better scene set up. This is what apparently happened.

Child Fears

Shadow; Basement; Closet

In general, there is much more that I want to do to these gifs now that I have taken a seat back and looked at them. During the process, the scratchboard/crosshatch type of look really appealed to me. It gave me more of a fear/type of madness and mesh of thought kind of feel than what I was thinking on doing previously for the original compositions. I will be going back to these to flesh them out more. These definitely give me a better feel than what I had planned before. A bit more..psychological feel.

Done in Toon Boom Animate pro.

Menegerie Child Fears III

Redux of the original idea of the third menegerie. Originally it was going to be a loop where a child was on a bed getting kicked between the monster beneath the bed and the one in the closet. It didnt feel enough….fear for me however and so it has been altered.

After going through these gifs, I find it really appealing with the sort of scratchboard crosshatch feel to the gifs. They are not finalized exactly, there is still more that I want to clean and mess with.
