ABSTRACT
The artistic style of The Bad Guys is inspired by the strong and simplified details of 2D illustration with its hand-drawn imperfections. Similar to traditional artists, our film needed techniques to selectively apply detail & thoughtfully deconstruct objects, focusing on artistic flexibility while maintaining scalability.
