Zagtoon's Other Shows

Saw some art on Benjamin Guillon's account that I haven't seen (besides Mystical Garden), so thought I'd post it here

"🥀Mystical Garden🌹

Excited to share some early visual development explorations for the upcoming feature Melody at @zaganimation The core challenge here was to visualize music as a living force designing an ecosystem where flora responds to harmonies and light stands in for sound.

Thanks to @jeremyzag @jeromecointre @karimelmokaddem and @nathanael.bronn for helping me improve my art ❤️"

"Moving away from the mystical night gardens, here we explore a brighter, more whimsical side of the world.

The challenge for this sequence was playing with scale: integrating giant musical instruments (like this moss-covered saxophone) into a wild environment. The "bubblegum" pink river adds that vibrant pop-culture touch that is central to the film's identity and its lead star, Katy Perry"

"Visual development piece created during my time at Zagtoon.

The goal was to explore a vibrant, playful, and highly stylized environment blending fantasy nature with musical elements 🎵🎶"

(This one and the next ones are not tagged as Melody 🤔)

"✨Here is one of my very early visual explorations (done in 2022) for an animated feature film project. Back then, the brief was to design the arrival location for our heroine in a gritty New York City, bustling with life and eccentric characters.

Even though the project has taken a different path since then, I still love the urban energy, the neon lighting, and the diverse character designs in this alleyway. That's the beauty of being a Concept Artist: exploring every possible route! 🎨"

"✨Next step in the visual development of our animated feature project: the first official outing of our quirky family in Central Park.

I had a blast working on the composition of this scene to highlight the contrast between our eccentric bunch and the everyday New Yorkers going about their business. The goal was to capture that exact moment when the extraordinary bursts into an ordinary day, bathed in beautiful morning light"

"Last chapter of this mini-story. After Central Park and all the strange looks, the punk misfits decide to show their new recruit the real New York - from the back of a van that should never be allowed to go that fast"

(The following ones remind me of Ladylion, though she's nowhere to be seen)

"Few years ago in @zaganimation I had the chance to develop an other animation feature movie!

Two explorers arrive by boat in a world where humans and animals live as one.

Africa-inspired landscapes 🥰

Every rock, tree and mist feels alive, part of a bigger harmony they're about to discover"

"Second early concept from the 2023 ZAG project, continuing our exploration of a magical African-inspired world.

Testing warm golden light, organic shapes, and that fairy-tale glow to make the landscape feel alive and mystical. No story yet, just shapes, colors and vibes coming together with a weird animal 😛"

"Continuing the exploration: in this world, humans and animals share breathtaking landscapes as one community 🥰

An ancient magic baobab tree stands on the edge of a cliff and provide all the water for this amazing world!"

"Riding through acacia groves at golden hour, with her blue bird companion soaring ahead, they traverse a world where the spirits of the past guide the living✨"

"A tiger demigods emerges as savanna royalty. Pure shape and color exploration to capture his divine power against acacia silhouettes and cliffs. No story beats, just worldbuilding magic✨"

I can't even send it for review or anything?

"Miraculous is about to take you on a journey, bringing you brand-new adventures in Africa.
