Porco Rosso - Egor


For me Studio Ghibli is equal to: wide sprawling landscapes, lush green fields, snow capped mountain tops, sparkling crystal blue water. Unique (often strange) well developed characters. And of course colour. Really really gorgeous colour.
With that in mind, I decided to steer WELL CLEAR of any of that.
Porco Rosso is my favourite Studio Ghibli film. An Italian WW1 fighter pilot cursed to look like a pig, who chases air pirates. Action, Comedy, Tragedy whats not to love.

  5. For me this is a really sweet composition - I like your use of shapes and how you have reserved pure black for the focal point. Feels good to look at this one with all those muted tones and graphic treatment.
