Process and Production Proposals

My initial proposal was...

Printed Pictures

I intend to produce...

I want to make an A1 screen printed film or television poster for a series based on American Gods by Neil Gaiman. I want to keep the product fairly simple but I want to produce the final piece on coloured paper and make a few variations on different coloured paper and I also want to try out metallic inks for the title. I also would like to produce some screen printed t-shirts reusing some of the assets from the poster and the animation.

The content will focus on...

I will focus on the characters and narrative of the book American Gods and how they can be portrayed through a film poster and set of t-shirts. I really want to get across a sense of atmosphere and the personality of the characters.

I will be aiming to communicate...

I want to communicate a dark atmosphere fitting of the book the film would be based on, I also want to communicate the key narratives of the characters and the split personalities of the characters.

To an audience of...

16-50 year olds the audience i'm aiming for are the type of people that watch HBO shows such as The Wire, Game of Thrones and The Sopranos, So I want it to apply to a mass audience rather than a niche audience. It would have to make people want to watch the show and not just apply to Neil Gaiman fans.

Moving Pictures 

I intend to produce...

3-6 10 second stings based on the novel American Gods by Neil Gaiman for a proposed tv show, these would work as a promotional tool for the potential tv series.

The content will focus on...

I intend to focus on the duality of the characters in the books and the contrast between the characters and there gods, most of the focus will be on the characters themselves and different aspects of there personality and motifs related to them.

I will be aiming to communicate...

A similair atmosphere to my poster and t-shirts, I really want both outcomes to work well as a set. The main point of the animations though would be to work as a promotional tool for a film or TV series and to get people interested in the show.

To an audience of...

The audience will be the same as the poster and t-shirts... 16-50 year olds the audience i'm aiming for are the type of people that watch HBO shows such as The Wire, Game of Thrones and The Sopranos, So I want it to apply to a mass audience rather than a niche audience. It would have to make people want to watch the show and not just apply to Neil Gaiman fans.

It s later changed to...

Printed Pictures-

I intend to produce a series of A1 posters based on an American Gods television series for HBO, I plan on producing 3 posters one for American Gods and 2 based on spinoffs Anansi Boys and Coming to America. The series could also potentially have a fourth print as well depending on how well it fits with the others as a set. I changed my idea around the time I was working on my planned A3 posters and they really weren't working so I decided to look at what I'd produced so far for this project and see what I could re-work or where I could expand on ideas to produce a series of A1 prints.

Moving Pictures-
I intend to produce 3-4 10 second stings based on the same television series as my posters and they would work as teasers for the show and would be shown in Ad breaks and online before Youtube videos. I want them to have a dark atmosphere matching the show and the posters so to do this i'm going to use a similar limited colour palette if any. Each sting will focus on one character from the book/ television series, They will be in the same style as my drawn animation was though I intend to incorporate some slight movement and I want to have a background this time.
