Winter months can be challenging for seniors, especially those with pre-existing medical conditions which get aggravated as a result of temperature fluctuations. This document explores solutions for tackling winter sickness for the senior age group in an accessible and affordable manner.

Context

Why winter sickness: For the elderly, the greatest challenge is surviving harsh winter months while already battling sickness, this project is an effort to serve the needs of the elderly by keeping an affordable approach to help as many as possible.

PERSONAL PROJECT BLENDER: CONCEPT ART

BLENDER: CONCEPT ART

Concept art is a form of illustration used to convey an idea for use in films, video games, animation, comic books, or other media before it is put into the final product. Concept art usually refers to world-building artwork used to inspire the development of media products, and is not the same as visual development art, though they are often confused.

Concept art is developed through several iterations. Multiple solutions are explored before settling on the final design. Concept art is not only used to develop the work, but also to show the project's progress to directors, clients and investors. Once the development of the work is complete, concept art may be reworked and used for advertising materials
