For layering and separation I really wanted to create a more detailed sketchy illustration of the world the characters from Coraline are based in. I chose to draw the house with some scenery around it as I knew this would work well for this theory. Within the artwork you can see from the layers and colours used the distance from the subject and can get a good sense of scale. The sky and background trees are on their own layer and the house in the middle is separated from them and becomes the focal point of the image as it is central and not as obstructed as other elements in the design. There is also some foreground plants and trees which are lighter in colour to show a different layer and that they are closer and separated from the plants further back in the image. These foreground elements however do not obscure the feature element of the poster. the house, and only serve to add to the depth of the image adding to the idea that the house is in a forest like rural area and very isolated, further bringing it to the viewer’s attention. I envision this design being adapted as the background of my micro-macro graphic and some text being added to add further depth to the image.
