Kaptein Sabeltan og den magiske diamant
Concept artist - Character & Set design
I was brought onto this project early to help develop the style and define the visuals along with the team at Qvisten Animation. I stayed on for most of the production, first as a concept artist, then with 3D art and finally wrapping up with some 2D animation tasks (credits, couple of scenes in-between, 2D artworks on paintings/walls etc.). All work below is done by me unless otherwise stated.
The film was directed by Rasmus Sivertsen
Characters
I with various pirate characters throughout. Most time was spent with Langemann and Sabeltann, being the more important characters of the bunch. The images below shows off a few of the designs at various points in the process
The earliest wild exploratory sketches, focusing on coming up with potentially new pirate characters
The ship
A lot of time in the film is spent on the ship itself. While production designer Are Austnes made 3d mockups to define the most key points of the ship, I went over to make more detailed line drawings to iterate on the design
Credits sequence
I was also tasked with coming up with a stylized and fast way of producing the credits art. I produced the styleframes below and later the full animated sequence at the bottom.
