Gumball : Backgrounds/Layout




I had the opportunity to work as a Layout and  a Background Artist for the the Emmy and BAFTA winning TV show  "The amazing world of Gumball" with an awesome crew of talented people ! ( seasons 3, 4 and 5)



BACKGROUND : 


Here are some backgrounds ( Matte-paintings mixing photographs, 2D and 3D elements in various proportions )












LAYOUT 

A little description of  the Layout department on The Amazing World Of Gumball : 

It is tasked to build cinematographic realistic sequences from the storyboard, ready to be worked on by 2D and 3D animation as well as Background and Compositing teams.
It covers also camera animation ( AE or 3D ) as well as the creation of new backgrounds, starting from photographs, 3D renders, or video footage ( that will be finished in Background after that )
,and the creation of new 3D props and sets.

The layout team is also in charge of the various shoots on location where photographs and live action footage are shot for specific scenes 
( including fancy golf courts, empty hospitals, airfields, and even a cave ! )


Here are some  (short ) samples of my work on season 4







And a bunch of rough still backgrounds :
