And so I am returning to the land of Saint-Saens for the continuing project with Naxos records. The app being developed with them is the first of it’s kind that they have done. And it’s a big task. I’m learning an awful lot about pixels!
Everything has to be created separately, so things can move (and be animated) but also recomposed for different platforms, from an ipad to an iphone. And being viewed on tiny devices means the concept and images need to be extremely simple, so that they can register in minature – so not delicate scratchy line drawings like my usual things. Here’s some work in progress: a HUGE departure for me… but in a funny way… I quite like the simplicity and boldness it’s forcing out of me! There are specific verse – newly written – which I have to follow too. All in all, an interesting project…
I think the elephant needs to be darker!
