Leeds in Lines




My rough plan so far for an opening to my promo video is to have actual video of me introducing myself, because then people know what I look like and see who I am. I think it makes the video more personal. But I will be recording that in a photography studio because I want a high quality video. I want it to look professional. I youtubed illustrators promo video's to have a look at the competition and a lot of people just have either static pictures with their voice over or they just time lapse video themselves drawing something. I don't think this is very effective to show what you can do because being an illustrator they already assume you can draw at least. I want my video to be showcasing useful things in the way I work that makes me suitable to employ to do professional work. 
So back to the video: I will video myself saying who I am and that I'm from leeds, at which point I will pull up an invisible leeds. I'll draw leeds and layer the images so that it looks like I'm pulling the illustrations up out of the bottom of the video. 
This is my text because it's pretty much the only font I can draw, and do draw regularly. I'm going to redo the one with my logo in because the bottom one I did bigger the texture on the 3d bit turned out much sleeker.


This is my Leeds so far, I'm just choosing the most recognisable buildings in Leeds. So far I have the Leeds uni Parkinson Building and Leeds met's Broadcasting Tower. These are just roughs at this point because I'm not really happy with how they came out. I think there could be more detail and line quality. and also I think I need to trace just to get the placement of the doors and windows in line, note the horendously uncensored door on the Parkinson Building.
