Squid / Octopus / Cuttlefish designs and colours.
Forgot to post this.
Experimenting with different eye catching colours and shapes, and how to incorporate them into the background colours that i will use. (the colours grouped around the colour wheel are swatches from my background layouts.) I then decided to use colours that would stand out the best against blues and dark purples, and came to the conclusion after these tests that the orange, creme colours used on the cuttlefish in the top right hand corner would work best as they are opposites to the blues i'm using and are pleasing to the audiences eye, and are not too garish.
As for the designs, i decided i needed something that was cute and cuddly, to cause emotion in my audience. it was a close one between the green squid at the bottom, and the peach cuttlefish at the top. the peach cuttlefish won however because there would not be room on the screen for that many tentacles and they wold cause problems on the animation side of the project.
