villains are show from low angles to make them scary and sinister looking, while close-up angles are used for victims to make them look vulnerable when they’re about to be attacked.
for research paper How have artists portrayed nightmares in film
one concept art of Nyx in silence form from this sketches
i like the idea of making her look like a puppet sewed on her mouth closed and have button eyes. i also like to make her slightly like a spider with the webs as strings.
I decided to do 3 series of her fire form only deferences that i've changed is the shine of the fire light, orange, red and blue. I decided to go for the blue because blue is a calm colour and and makes her look calm in the first pic. What i was thinking to do it to make the blue colour change to orange when she goes angry if i have the chance to draw it.
concept ideas sketches done in biro in my sketchbook of Nyxs fire form, demon horns, silences form and normal form.
normal form i wanted to make her have wide eyes also have bags underneath to show that she looks like she hasn't sleep for long.
Fire form i experimenting her legs and going close to demon looking form for Nyx. i decided to go with demon looking legs for the final because the normal looks boring to me, also the horns i sketched the shapes that could possibly fit
Silence form i was going into that puppet looking theme close to Coraline movie with button eyes, but i wasnt too sure if i want to keep that cocnept, so i could continue sketching more further in future
doing some basic research and i changed the title slightly to be sure to what i can look into.
Research: Night Fears in Young Children
Sleep in infants and young children:
Abstract
Approximately 25% of children younger than 5 years experience some type of sleep problem. Whether the problem is acute or chronic, significant disruption to the child's sleep can occur and have a negative impact on the child and family. This article is the second in a two-part series on sleep in infants and young children. The purpose of this article is to provide fundamental information regarding common pediatric sleep problems for the clinician to use when assessing a child's sleep behaviors or addressing parental concerns. The definition, impact, and clinical evaluation of sleep problems are discussed.
Emotive imagery is a variant of systematic desensitization that has been used in the treatment of children's excessive fears. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of emotive imagery as a fear reduction procedure using a multiple baseline design across subjects. Three children (6, 8 and 11 years old) with night-time fears participated in the study. The children showed marked behavioral improvements on a test for darkness toleration that was administered on alternate days in their homes. However, they reported experiencing very little fear in these tests. Over the intervention period fewer night-time behavioral disturbances were observed for two subjects. Parents expressed some concern about the darkness test but were satisfied with emotive imagery as a fear reduction procedure. As children's phobias are characterized by multiple processes, we recommend a combination of treatment procedures in clinical practice.

I had to develop more on my character, i been giving critique by my lectures saying she looks generic. My net aim is to develop concept character more further before doing the test animation.
since i need to develop on my character more, i also think she needs more characteristic on her.
