Animated Narratives Week 5 | Character, animating the interior state

This week I chose to create another storyboard and some character designs, this time looking at how design can show their interior state. By using “stolen” dialogue a story was formed around two office workers and how they respond to a philosophical question. The first to pose the question has a rounder, more open design which I used to denote that they were probably calmer and more adaptable. For the other I chose to use a lot of straight lines and sharper angles, to show they are more rigid in their thinking. I liked the idea of the question “breaking” them so much that they physically turn to stone.
