Kung Fu Panda. Pandas. Reoccurring theme there but relevant. When watching the Kung Fu Panda movies, the parts that always stand out to me most are the areas concerning backstory due to their specific art styles. They seem to be very abstract and bright which in turn reflects and aids the effectiveness of the story that’s trying to be told.

I really like this style of art. It’s bold, bright, eye catching and effective in aiding a compelling and action packed story. Ideally I’d like to try and incorporate this style into my work.

If I did incorporate this style into the children’s book, I’d need the colours to be brighter and more friendly to the younger reader. It might be an interesting idea to blend the two styles that I’ve spoken about as seeing the bold and bright colours mixed with that of Eric Carle’s techniques might make something intriguing for the reader.
