Fresh Talent Joie Brown

There is a lot to be learned from studying the techniques of artists in the film industry. Background designers know how to keep the focus on the action. Character designers know how to keep their characters both distinctive and consistent. Color stylists use color to tell a story, not as mere decoration. Story boards are essentially book dummies. And animators have long understood the importance of silhouette.

Joie Brown specializes in visual development, but she is also a talented storyteller.  Anyone who can envision the tale of a gummy pig lost in a primeval world of sweets,  threatened by a Candysaur, deserves some attention. I hope she inspires you too.
