A Monster Calls

I started with a basic sketch using lots of greens and browns to create the look of leaves, sticks, and natural textures. with lots of greens and browns to represent the leaves and sticks. 

As I progressed, I incorporated more sticks after the director shared his vision of the tree being made up of mostly branches rather than greenery. 

My final sketch combined elements from the first two by including both sticks and a green mesh to represent leaves. This approach maintained the tree like appearance while keeping the greenery minimal and emphasizing the stick based structure. 

The Grandma costume started off with a full outfit that had a bright blue color and a pearl necklace. 

Due to the actress's limited changing time, I changed it to just a suit coat with a very dark blue color. 

The final costume had a slightly lighter color that better contrasted the black base costume. It also had a shorter suit coat for a more stylish look.
