For The Avaloki, I spent some time to do compositional studies of traditional Japanese woodblock prints. Hokusai was a master at designing movement and space on a 2D surface — it’s incredible.
I did these compositional studies before I painted the traditionally inspired painted scenes for The Avaloki. You can see how these inspired my art direction process for the film here.
The Avaloki is a VR narrative experience available for free on the Oculus store.
