Dog of Zone VI

I started PhD studies at Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow, Poland last fall and "Dogs of Zone" are part of my 3 years PhD project. It will not consist of still images only, I'm planning to incorporate my interests in other mediums and technologies but I'd rather not speak too much before I get well past initial stages of the work. Meanwhile, one more Zone creature.

Alice:Madness Returns color designs

Color designs are probably my favourite part of the job. Basically, these are quick and loose sketches that are done to help visualise scenes better. The focus is on color and light, not on models or details. They usually go through a couple of revisions. Sometimes they end up quite close to final work and sometimes not. Commercials production is probably more freestyle and organic then movies so there is more margin for changes throughout the process.
First two images come from the second Alice trailer (look for links a few posts back) and were done with Passion's Stu Hall who was supervisor on the job. Third image was done for the first trailer.

Coke Zero dark cloud

Before I put some new zone doggies on display here are the dark cloud matte paintings I did for the aforementioned Coke Zero "Invasion" project last year.
