creating busy backgrounds for scene 1 shot 1

 Scene 1

The vision of scene 1 was rather difficult to achieve because it was harder to act out every action needed. Therefore I decided to try out creative ways to solve this difficulty

I initially adopted this method of smuggling silhouettes of a busy crowd as done on paintings by LS Lowry

                 

To achieve this painterly feeling I decided to use photoshop.

 

I ended up abandoning the lowry method. it was difficult for me to replicate the personality of the place with that method.

So I left the smudges but I created defined character extras and props. 

After creating about 30 drawings of people and animals I used them to populate the scene.
