here’s some early visdev for the Sprint Vector teaser i helped with a year ago! sprint vector is a VR game developed by Survios and at Chromosphere we did a short teaser for their launch. Eusong and I worked on the early pitch together and i did some thumbnails, colorscripting and bg painting, and i also got to color Eusong’s amazing character designs and some of his layouts/boards. we were inspired by psychedelic futurism and really wanted the style to feel fast and organic, like its moving with the music. initially i felt like the original story idea we were working with was very fast paced and could’ve been hard to follow but i think Eusong took the idea and made it work really well, he’s a great director and i’m glad i got to work with him on this :)

check out full teaser here:

some greek backgrounds from Mr. Peabody and Sherman TV show, I really liked the cubist inspiration in that first bg, its fun to get to do something more graphic and shapey sometimes

this was one of my favorite colorscripts that i did during the Mr. Peabody Sherman tv show, I still feel like the color palette was pretty accurate to the location and really gave that heat sunsetty mood in Timbuktu but still stylized for the show, also they flew a pyramid from Egypt into Timbuktu which is why there’s egyptian stuff halfway through the episode lol

[sylvialiu]

this is my other favorite colorscript from the peabody show, Kevin was feeling kind of stuck inspirationally color/style wise for this Edgar Allen Poe episode because he already did so many colorscripts for the show lol and at some point you just run out of ideas or you get tired etc and we talked about it and we came up with doing this old fairytale book illustrations style which we were pretty happy with :) Kevin did the first 2 panels and I helped fill in the rest, it was a nice break to get to do more sketchy line drawn stuff than the usual shape oriented style

[sylvialiu]

i always have a lot of fun when we go to a totally different style like this stain glass inspiration for the Joan of Arc music video in Mr. Peabody and Sherman tv show, I thought the colorscript that Kevin did was beautiful and the song was also super fun to listen to :) the video came out really cool also thanks to Stephane Coedel!

Song is by: Hammered Satin - Joan of Arc

I really liked the color palette and mood in this episode that Kevin Dart colorscripted, I think we were doing a lot of bright upbeat colors for awhile on Peabody so it was a nice change to switch to a more spooky darker palette :)

[sylvialiu]

ahh this was one of the hardest peabody colorscripts for me, it took a really long time.. i wanted to do a vintage kind of las vegas with gold, sometimes i think i make strange color choices because i think they’re interesting but then i have a hard time figuring a way to balance it out so it doesn’t all look so crazy lol, it took me awhile to finally finish it and i’m not sure how i feel about the colorscript now but i do think the BGs look fun

[sylvialiu]

ok so this is a weird post but i really like doing the funny looking backgrounds, that castle one is like an old school CG video game bg, the one with the tree is a giant bird nest tree lol and Chris Turnham painted the little town in that bg, and here’s some other random ones with weird animals from the Mr. Peabody Sherman show :) these are not the most beautiful BGs I’ve painted but I’ll never for get them

[sylvialiu]

here’s a fun colorscript and background paintings from the Mr. Peabody and Sherman TV show inspired by the 80s, this color palette came really naturally and was the fastest colorscript for me and I’m not sure why lol but other people on my team called me the 80s queen after I did this haha

compositing and effects by amazing Stephane Coedel!

T___T i missed your art so much@ i only found your instagram recently, but i'm still happy you came back to post on tumblr, haha. your colors and shapes are really beautiful; i think my fond fav is the fireplace room, you managed to make the cool colors so intense! have a good sundayyy

aw hey thats so nice of you! thank you very much im glad that you like the work ^_^  yeah i had stopped updating my tumblr and instagram for some time D: but i will try to update more now especially since i have a backlog of stuff lol, i hope you have a good weekend :)

[sylvialiu]

ah haven’t posted in awhile on here =_= i’ve got a bunch of stuff to update, here’s some Mr. Peabody and Sherman tv show colorscript and background paintings from an episode about Queen Elizabeth ^_^ this was my first time handling a colorscript and it was a big learning experience, Kevin Dart did the first 5 panels in the top row and then I filled in the rest of it, I learned alot about his color sense and trying to find color palettes that fit the locations but were stylized for the show, it was pretty intense doing it for the first time but it was also really fun experience :)
