Mood Board

So here is my moodboard, comprised by many different elements that I wish to include in my final illustration.

First, at the top left corner, I found the image by inputting ‘healing art’, because as I have once said before, art helps me rejuvenate in a way . The reason why I include it in my moodboard is because I find it visually appealing, and it sparked an idea within me.

Right to the right of it, is a graphical edit of Eren Jaeger from the anime Attack on Titan…. But when I attempt to trace its creator my results were pretty much blank. /so if anyone knows who it is please inform me this is not mine I’m so sorry/ This conveys on how I want to be able to edit my own graphics myself, and want it to be pretty similar to this style of editing.

At the top right beside Eren, it’s a scene from the famous tear-jerking anime adaptation from a visual novel called Clannad. The reason it being here is that I want to be able to make people cry, smile and laugh with my own visual novels with powerful plot and art.

Underneath Clannad, there’s the animated sequence of Disney’s Enchanted. Enchanted has been one of my favorite Disney movies, and it’s mostly because of its optimistic and idealistic outlook of life in general itself in modern setting. That magic still exists even now. Ahem.

At the righmost corner, there’s a montage of screenshots from the visual novel style video game Ace Attorney. Again, it has an amazing narrative and the fact that they recycle their sprites and animations again and again through the whole game, it doesn’t turn the experience dull. It actually enhances the whole gameplay.

Under Ace Attorney is the female heroine from the classic RPG game Legend of Mana. I’ve always been fascinated with how archaic yet beautiful the concept art for the whole game are. I wish to also create visually and charasterically imaginative characters myself.

Right to the left is a screenshot of an infamous PS2 visual novel port called When Cicadas Cry. It’s probably the one thing that finally convinced me that I should take the artistic path when it comes to my further education.

Lastly, the at the bottom left corner, there is Puella Magi Madoka Magica, infamous for seeming  like a cute and cuddly magical anime girl unti, well, let’s say hope is shredded to pieces in the next few episodes. Again, the fantastical designs and elements of the anime, especially the stunningly illustrated backgrounds whenever the Puella Magis -the magical girls- enter a Witch’s -their foe in this show- barrier.

Wow, that’s a surreal compilation, isn’t it.
