This is the design for the balloon. During the course of the animatic, the balloon changes state from happy (as shown on the far right) to angry (as shown on the near right).
The design of the balloon is simple as I was trying to create the effect of the character of the balloon being quite sinister. even though the balloon could be seen as an inanimate object, I was trying to create a bit of depth behind the character of the balloon. I wanted to create the idea that the balloon is not what it seems and this gave the inspiration for the balloon changing state through the course of the animatic.
The balloon changes colour gradually as it begins to change state and the only difference in terms of deisgn is the addition of frowning eyebrows and change of colour.
This was intentional as I wanted the balloon to seem quite sinister and i decided that the best possible way to do this would be to only slightly change the charater's design.
