Sunrise and sunset

During a group discussion Kirsty mentioned using a sunset to portray the element fire. Using colour to show mood i think is a much more subtle way of creating the mise-en-scene of my animation. So my animation will be all about the visuals, the colour, pattern and style of drawing with limited animation to portray what i feel. I have drawn a few examples into my sketch book but as i was looking at photos of sunsets i have realised that things in the foreground are almost silhouettes so i think i am going to make the boat into a silhouette in this scene and the background will be the dominant feature.

Then i thought of a sunrise and the colours are different in that of sunset - they are cool colours to represent new beginnings so i could use this to show inspiration the start of a new idea this could represent the element air.
