Ask Movie Slate - Paranorman, Halloween 2015

Description

Commissioned by :iconssjcharon:

Paranorman is one of those weird movies that I really never fully got into, but that stuck with me after watching it only once. Similar to the other movie produced by the same studio (The Boxtrolls) it's easy to watch but hard to forget, and I doubt it could withstand a second viewing. Paranorman is very heavy in its atmosphere, themes, and characters, and to say that about an animated movie is quite impressive. But I think its virtues are a double edge sword. It's really good and really great, but it overloaded me so much I find it hard to go back to it.

As for the picture, I am once again unsure of how this crossover could work. Zecora as Agatha (the ghost of the little girl that got executed in the movie) kind of struck me as out of nowhere, so I will let you guys judge how it works (or doesn't work). This drawing took a lot less time than I thought it would when I first read the description. The forest-y background and the cottage got covered in a ton of lightning, but then again that's how it looks like in the movie. This was also a fun exercise in shading solely with one color (I like shading with purples, blues and greens). It kind of gives it a very sick, disease feel, if you know what I mean.

I hope you guys enjoy this one! Please let me know what you think in the comments.

Zecors as Agatha works, everyone thought zecora was a witch, everyone thought Agatha was a witch vinyl difference was that zecora wasn’t killed by a pinch mob
