TOKI & DEWEI - THE STREETS - Matte Painting

Set in a world of childhood comics, Toki & Dewei is the story of two children trapped by their imagination. They will discover during an epic quest the value of their friendship and the importance of sharing.
I chose to highlight the duality of the characters throughout the color scheme of the movie. Based on a double lighting, one warm and one cool, reflecting their ambitions, the sequence had to show the transition in the characters' progression.
Based on this direction, I was able to easily go from the warm and comfy mood typical of children discovering their dreams, to the chilling mood of competition and selfishness.
