Heavenly Creatures


Heavenly Creatures is a screenplay based on a true story of a strong bound between two friends, Juliet and Pauline that eventually led them to the murder Pauline’s mother who wanted to separate them.

Since I’m a fan of classic Anime and animation is my passion and profession, I decided to adapt the screenplay as an anime featured and design the characters. The main characters are two high school girls and will have the same outfit as other students. I would choose mute colors for their outfit. Juliet needs to stand out slightly. I keep her uniform the same as others and give her a bright color (coral red) hair accessory. Based on the real life characters, I’d design Juliet with shoulder-lenght blond hair and blue eyes with rosy chicks and Pauline with plane pale face, black curly hair and dark brown eyes. However their designs changes while they’re in their imaginary world when they make up their story. Juliet has the same hairstyle but longer and in light pink and her eyes are more saturated and brighter blue. Pauline would have long dark green curly hair with dark purple eyes. In general, the value of the colors and their relations stays the same in the real world designs and the imaginary designs but the hue is different. It is usual for anime characters to have unnatural hair and eye colors with exaggerated hairstyles and over the top clothes especially in fantasy genre. Other characters are also following the same rules but they morph into and from fully clay figurines that Juliet and Pauline make while developing their story.
