FIlm Studies (13 Assassins)

This is another assignment from my digital painting class. We were to watch a film (or many) and get screen caps to do full color studies from. There was a previous assignment doing the same thing but in black and white.... but those are just terrible so I'll keep them to myself.

I was doing these pretty quick, trying to get better at conveying a visual message rather quickly (speed-painting?). Really, I was looking mainly at the composition used in the shots and trying to get better at seeing color/ value without using the color-picker in Photoshop.

Also: Watch this movie if you have not, it is awesome and full of beautiful cinematography.
