For my last illustration project I could decide what to do.
I had to invent an assignment: the teacher pretended he was an artist who gave me an assignment to introduce 3 new hero characters.
Planning:
- Orientation
- Moodboard/Styleboard
- Research
- Character design
- Storyboard
- Animatic
- Final animation

Orientation
What is illustration?
For me, illustration is a way of being free. You draw your own world and characters.
Some Illustrations allow you to hear the sounds and sometimes even see movement.
I would like to go a step further to ensure that you really see movement and hear sound.

What’s already being done in the direction I like?
There is a lot of stuff made that I like. It’s quite difficult to make a list of it.
What gets me excited?
Really simple, a new idea for something creative.

Anime
In Japan, the word is used to denote all types of animated and cartoon films, both out of Japan and foreign.
Traditionally, the animations were drawn by hand, but today the majority is produced by using digital animation techniques.

Anime is used in television series, movies, videos, computer games, advertising and Internet publications and represents most, if not all, genres of fiction. The themes within anime are often aimed at an older audience.
Although the earliest known Japanese animation comes from 1917 and many original Japanese cartoons were produced in the following decades, the distinctive style for which anime is known was not developed until the 1960s (a good example of this is the work of Osamu Tezuka ), and did not emerge outside of Japan until the 1980s.
The rise of anime and manga are closely linked thanks to the fact that a popular manga or anime is often transferred to the other medium and also becomes popular there.

Theme
The theme of the video will be power.
In this animation I'll show how the girls deal with their problems and have some fun time together.
Video
I want to make an animation on the song Take a hint - Nightcore version.
A while ago I made an oc character of myself. Her name is Rivy. At first she was an character I invented based on Teen Titans (the original cartoon of 2003).
Than she got into story I invented with my friends, she has a backstory and is a character of her own now.
Currently I drew her in My Hero Academia style since I really like this series.
Anime’s have great fighting scenes, stories, power moves and animations. I want to challenge myself and try to make such an animation.
This animation is supposed to be an introduction video of three hero girls, Rivy, Sjonnie and Eclipse.
They fight against crime to make the world a better place. Of course they have some stuff of their own and sometimes it can give some complications.
In this animation you’ll see their special powers, outfits and some backstories.
Since Rivy is my oc she’ll be the protagonist.

Animatic
I made two animatics.
This animatic is made after my boyfriend gave me some feedback.
He said it would be fun to see more about the powers of the girls.
Now you see the powers in action.
This animatic was made before the feedback.
Final animation
The animation is at the beginning of this page.
But here are the animations I made.
