Map development

Hi

Here a few pages of map development from my sketch book. After doing the prelimanary images for the feel and design of the map I wanted to start building it in a useful structure. Also after the group crit we had some feedback to go on. It was important to add a bit more structure and form, to make it more map like, and for me to make so it was transferable into after effects. By vectorizing the main areas we can use these too highlight and zoom in, add more detail and gerally play around with more untill we get the look and motion we want. However in cutting out  the more artistic detail and concentrating on the simplicity it has lost an edge and mood that was there in the first designs. This is something we will both need to address to not only get that back but also tie it in more seamlessly with Chris’s drawings.
