Sports Style (ILV)

A visual blueprint for animation — combining character design, layout strategy, background detailing, and production-ready workflows.

Character Line-Up

The character design follows a Clean, minimal outlines with uniform line weight. Emphasis on clarity and proportion. No internal shading or texture.

Character Design & Rig

Since the stories are varied and cover a whole range of topics, bold, flat colors with minimal gradients or shadows. Primary and secondary colors are used in distinct clothing elements to enhance visual segmentation.

Character Shapes

The characters are crafted from simple, rounded shapes with tapered arms and legs that allow for smooth, flexible movement without sharp joints. The style is vector and are created specially for sport related stories.

Character Rig

The rig of the character is separated into the components that will have to be animated individually. The layering structure is set in such a way to make animation easier for the animator and to identify the parts of the character.

Character Structure

The ‘Head’ will be a group containing:
-Hair and HairBack
-Eyebrows
-Head
-Nose
-Mouth Left eye and Right eye

-The’ Body” will be one layer
-The ‘ Waist” can be a separate lay
-The legs will be named L_Leg and R_Leg
-The arms will be named L_Arm and R_Arm

Gestures (Action Poses)

Turn-arounds

Background – Interior

The interior scene follows a warm, painterly style with soft lighting and textured brushwork, giving it a cozy, storybook-like feel. The room is constructed using simplified forms and gently exaggerated proportions, which contribute to a friendly and accessible aesthetic.

Background – Exterior

This background employs a stylized, semi-realistic digital painting approach, commonly seen in modern 2D animations and educational content. The stadium is illustrated with smooth, clean lines and simplified architectural details, which help maintain clarity without overwhelming the viewer. The color palette leans toward cool and vibrant tones—particularly blues and greens—evoking a clear, energetic daytime setting.
