#DisneyJr's #Ariel premieres Thursday June 27 on Disney Jr. and Friday June 28 on @DisneyPlus. Here's a clip of my Q&A with art director Chrystin Garland and executive producer Lynne Southerland. Our entire conversation is at https://t.co/yhkSdW9MNK and https://t.co/cBZM8duAuX.
Here are the main characters eyes next to each other- can you guess the character based on their eyes?
As the main character, Frieren's eyes should be the most detailed and colorful. They are a 4 step rainbow (though some shots don't have the purple hue, would love to know why). The desaturated colors allows the eye "rainbow" to not overwhelm other colors in the scene.
Fern's eyes are really interesting, since they actually have more color steps than Frieren's eye when you include the light purple in the pupil. But since they are so close in hue, they appear as one color- purple. Check out the video for more insights!
Got to design this Atlantica building for Disney Jr Ariel 🧜♀️ Can't wait for the show to come out! Amazing art direction by @ChrystinGarland, assistant AD @MichelleInTeal, and Prod Lynne Southerland. Shoutout to all the other wonderful artists to the show and ICON, our 3D studio!
