Little Boy Walk
Quick play blast showing a basic walk.
Just getting used to the rig now, so I am prepared for the actual animating later on.
I've also asked all of my group to do the same.
Visual Research - (With Lilly)
With Lilly we went over the psychology of colour with children and a little on lighting, which Lilly went further into after our meeting.
We discussed how our target market range is aged 2-6 years old and as far as we can tell Western culture based also. The little boy has an orange and white top and blue trousers.
We compared the different still images from the storybook pages and found that every time we found a rule one of the images would break it. For example, the backgrounds are repetitively plain but not in the zebra shot. Very sharp highlights just on the edges but not in the bear shot.

- Bright eye catching colors: To be used to emphasis certain aspects, especially primary colors and green.
- Cool colors: night time, soothing
- Warm colors: stimulating, comforting
- Green: Nature, calming, improving for reading
- Brown/Tan platform for brighter shades
- Boy/Hippo: Vibrant with white also being very vivid
- Waterfall: Angelic lighting, bright whites, cleanliness
We have decided once the first colour schemes are made to try and get feedback from children at local schools, to aid towards final decisions.

Color change
Different platforms/screens may show a different colour pallet to the one we create. Whilst this will be something that we look into after the final colors are decided and edit accordingly. Ultimately just something to keep in mind later on in development stage.
Culture
Color change for culture English written - Internet. After reading through many different websites and there colour changes I think our main colors of Pink ,Natural colors, White will not have much impact across cultures aside from mild undertones of religion.
Color blindness
Color blindness seems to affect a large part of the population with different places giving different statistics it seems to be a minimum of 1/30 affected in some way. As such we will be avoiding: Green & Red; Green & Brown; Blue & Purple; Green & Blue; Light Green & Yellow; Blue & Grey; Green & Grey; Green & Black colour schemes. And also using other symbolism not just colour to get mood/meaning across as this will apply both to across culture and color blind people.Also using different textures for different colors to further break certain areas apart
