I presented my planned concept to Xavier and we made a list of further considerations;
- Is he an angel? could put a halo on him?
- What colour do I want?
- Add a moon when he is howling?
- Words / text – when and where?
- Itch levels – itchometer? Numbers?
- UX / UI – How will they know that they need to click? or what happens?
- “Click to apply little pricks flea treatment”
- Size of dog? Make him huge?
- Same background ? or different?
- Art direction?
- Shadow?
I then created visual concepts of what the different micro-stories could look like. These were created with photoshop. These reflected the above considerations. I played around with making the dog and background different colours.
This was a really useful exercise as it enabled me to imagine what the composition could look like. I think, however, in the end, it won’t look exactly like these concepts, but just be inspired by them.
