Responsive: Loopdeloop: 2 Character and background design

So i decided i would start with designing the background, I used the images i collected to decide on a colour scheme for the stairs. I also decided to add a grid to both the background and the stairs but at different sizes in order to help add a little bit of texture, i also made sure the grids were different sizes in order to help contrast the stairs against the background and show a bit of parallax.
For the character i wanted to keep him simple, with responsive submission around the corner i want to spend as little time producing this animation without losing quality, therefore i decided minimalism would be the way to go for this character. I started with a bright green and decided that it just didn't go very will with the blue or magenta, similarly with the light blue. I made sure i had the colours i used for my background close by while designing the characters to make sure that the character stood out but didn't clash. I eventually decided on white as it goes with everything, however i still plan on incorporating other colours as the character falls down the stairs and glitches out. As for the shape i eventually decided on a triangle. I felt the square would fit too much in to the background, and the circle would end up looking less dynamic as it falls down the stairs as there are no definite points. i also decided to not add a face but add lines as arms and legs that i can turn into a puppet in after effects from the skills i picked up from collaborative brief from responsive.
