MOTU Revolution Background Design

Background Design concepts done for Masters of the Universe Revelation. I had the pleasure of leading the Background Design team from the position of BG Design Supervisor. My contributions were key to stablish not only the visual style of the Backgrounds and vehicles, but also of some creature and prop designs and to help visualize the story as well. These concepts, sketches and color keys show the thought process behind the creation of a Netflix animated tv series.

In the very begining of production I did a lot of black and white sketches which helped the directors and writers to vizualize the story beats. This colaboration with the story department set the tone for the production, and all of the design work we did in the bg department was heavily influenced by narrative and story points, helping us compose shots and flesh out the elements of this universe.
