Laura initially produced Concept Art for the film which featured Bagboy with the Kites. Now, unknowingly, Laura had set the Kite shape from that very point as no matter how many times I sketched out various shapes for the base kite, I just kept coming back to the diamond. Because it's edgey, it represents something about Bagboy. Represents the edgey, confident quality to him that he's not afraid at the end of the day to go up to the girl despite all his fears, and offer her the kite.
It took me a while to figure out though, what shape/style the final kite that Bagboy presents to Sofia should be. In the end, while it's all a bit cliché, we went for this heart shape, as the shape extends out to not just the fact that Bagboy is giving his heart to Sofia metaphorically speaking, but how the Kite is brutally destroyed THEN ALSO run over by the car...well the imagery speaks for itself really!
So here is the Sheet featuring all 3 Kites, and the different variations of Kite deterioration I will need.
And here is a sheet for Zoe, which details with pin point accuracy, exactly how I need my kites put together, she can also take this concept and apply it to the heart shaped kite as it is essentially the same sort of thing.
