Phase Four – Drawing Background Scenes

After finishing the character, I moved on to creating the background scenes, and this is where the world of the animation really starts to take shape. Until now, the focus was mainly on the character, but in this phase, I had to think about the environment and how it supports the story.





I started by keeping the backgrounds simple and not too detailed. Since this is still part of the animatic process, the goal isn’t to create a fully polished environment, but to give a clear idea of where the scene is happening. Things like the classroom setting, walls, windows, and basic furniture help set the context without distracting from the character.

One important thing I focused on was composition. I made sure the background doesn’t overpower the character. The character is still the main focus, so the background needs to support it, not compete with it. I used lighter tones and simpler shapes so the character stands out clearly.

I also thought about perspective and depth. Even with simple lines, adding elements like desks, walls, or windows at slight angles helps make the scene feel more realistic and less flat. It gives a better sense of space in the animation.
