Style Frame

This is what i keep seeing in my head for some strange reason ... yes a tractor i think it is from spending too much time in the countryside! So i thought of a way i could make it interesting and what better way to do it than to add some texture and pattern into the design. The hills are split into sections which is taken from my inspiration 'Tiny Wings' and as they use texture i have added pattern to make it slightly different and just as interesting and colourful. From my idea of using the 4 elements this one will symbolise earth as farmers literally live of the earth that is their source of income and how they survive. After i knew how i wanted my frames to look i thought of how i could portray the other elements and with a similar meaning to this i will use a fishing boat for water.
Note to self - these are not necessarily the final compositions as i need to play around with the colour/pattern and overall layout to make sure i portray the correct mise-en-scene to the audience. I still need to decide on what events will occur within each scene and that will then give me more of an incite into finding the correct colour scheme and composition.
(These are simply visuals that i keep imagining ... i wanted to make sure i documented them before i started my development.)

Even though they are just examples of what i want the final piece to look like i still haven't just placed different patterns and texture into my hand drawn images willy nilly i have tried to carefully consider the colour and the amount of pattern that goes into each individual section to make sure i get the hang of making sure the composition is clear and understandable to the audience. For example in the both of these style frames i have used pastel colours for a calm and relaxed vibe to portray a calm and peaceful environment.

Here is a quick test i am in the middle of developing in after effects of my rough thought process of how i want the animation to look, i want everything to be hand drawn in black Biro/ink, scanned in and then animated in after effects as i really want my after effects skills to improve! The test is currently only 2 seconds long and the movement of the boat is not great but i wanted to just make sure i would be able to animate successfully in after effects and i think the single splash i have created works successfully.
