Description A selection of the many, many, MANY backgrounds I drew for the MinoMonsters cinematic trailer. You don't realize how many gosh darn backgrounds there are in an animated feature until you have to start drawing them.

Watch the trailer here

Download MinoMonsters for iOS

Did you know that YouTube doesn't update the view count until after 24 hours? Weird, right?

These are pretty helpful on ways to make it look natural. My backgrounds usually look like something a kid drew.

Oh lord these are beautiful and so inspiring. ;_; I love how heavenly the lighting is and the atmospheric effect for the far background is ace. Cute trailer, too! It has a really traditional animation feel to it with the way the characters are drawn.Β

We did!! It's kind of bonkers looking back on it--we put the whole thing together with just four people (three animators and me). But oh god, do I ever hate trees now. NO MORE TREES. NOT ALLOWED.

Jeez it's so fun to see these after watching the trailer. Seeing these in the animation and seeing them now is just really neat. I'm in love with how you draw sunlight, I can just SEE how warm it is. XD

Thank you!! Man, we even tried to cut down on the number of shots, and it was still SO MANY different permutations of 'a scene with trees.' NO MORE TREES EVER I refuse to draw them again

I can try! I had to do these REALLY FAST, so at the very least, a tutorial could help on how to make fast, cheatery forest backgrounds! XDDDDD

These are beautiful. So simple yet effective. Bgs/bg artists don't get enough love in my opinion. I often find myself ogling pretty backdrops and scenery instead of characters themselves aaaaand then I miss all the important plot parts but it's worth it really. (Open Season comes to mind, as meh as the movie was I thought it had very nice and vivid painterly backgrounds that blended nicely with everything else).
Also whoever voiced the little blue guy is funny as hell. Great job all around.

Haha yeah, layout can be harsh but I think you did an amazing job with these. I'm digging the gentle touch of bloom against all the cool colors~
