Studio Brief 2 - Research - Chris Applehans - Concept art

Chris Applehans is probably my favourite concept artists/character designer. I really like his dark and captivating pieces of work that give off such a dark atmosphere.


For the animated filmd Monster House, he created a lot of pieces of work that captured the colours and characters so well.



He clearly demonstrated the atmosphere of the film through a series of painted scenes.




I really like how detailed his pieces of concept art are, and how they demonstrate the storyline.





I really like his concept art for Coraline, because he manages to capture the simple and childish attitude of the main character through the scenery. 





I really like his use of colour and the various shades that he puts together to create the dingy scenery from the feature.
Overall, I plan on taking a lot of inspiration from this artist because of how well he captures the scenery for a film, and how his style varies from feature to feature.
