AVATAR - The Way of Water
Concept Design | Pre-Production

During my time in the Avatar Art Department, I had the chance to work on a wide variety of items from Storyboards, Keyframe illustrations, Set Designs, Look Dev Art Direction and Studio Photography.

Keyframe illustrations serve multiple purposes. They are often the first visuals created directly from the script. Sometimes, their emphasis is on set design, but more frequently, they establish the lighting and overall mood for an entire sequence. The camera angle is usually wider than any specific shot mentioned in the script to show as much as possible. In the final sequence, which comprises multiple inserts, the camera framing focuses more on characters or important actions.
