Lighting and Mood
These sketches show the different atmospheres that different lighting can evoke. The past sketches were taken a step forward by giving them more depth, adding details, and adjusting the perspective. In these sketches, specific narratives and elements are reinforced to convey the emotions and feelings needed to tell the story that takes place in each of these environments.
