Victorian Animated Portraits

Following on from my previous project ‘Victorian Portraits’, this series explores the relationship between digital illustration and 2D animation. The intention behind this project was to further my knowledge and experience with animation, choosing an era that I find vastly interesting - the Victorian period - and using this as the content for the project.

Three people were chosen from the Victorian Portraits project to feature in their own animation. Creating caricatures for these people was a great way to explore who they were as a person, exaggerating their most notable attributes and bringing them to ‘life’.

Look out for ‘Easter Eggs’ hidden in the animations …
