Hello, can you describe in more detail how separate parts of the collages will be blending within each other?
Do they need to be with transparent background, so we can see other collages bellow?

Hi. The pieces of media (stock photo clips, clip-art, hand-drawn swiggles) are parts of the character's body. Ideally there are enough so that (when animated in a separate project) they might expand or pop or spin ... all to relay the physical experience of emotion. So, each piece is separate, but together they forma a character. Like a sketch made of digital cut-outs. THESE ARE NOT HAND-DRAWN OR COMPUTER DRAWN CHARACTERS. I'm posting with this emphasis because some designers insist on sharing a complete drawing. These will be rejected.

Only Human Body Parts ?

No. The artist can use anything to make an interesting, funny, effective character. This character will appear in a cartoon that (like old cartoons) shows emotion in physically accurate, but exaggerated, silly ways for comedic effect.

Can I Submit My Sketch First? After, If you like, I Will Design it. Is it OK?

Ideally the characters are gender-ambiguous (ie, have some male and female identifying clip-art pieces - a man's arm and a woman's leg). Ideally the faces are also a collage, and don't identify the character as any ethnicity. The body parts (if human appendages) can be mixed in ethnicity (a white arm, and black leg). It's great to be ironic, send a message. It's also OK to include for the character multiple heads or the legs of a centipede or anything. These characters are sharing their raw experience of real feeling, but they are doing it in a way that looks silly or funny.

go ahead and submit. thanks.

no. anything goes.

Hello
I want to participate in this project, I find it very fun. A question, I see in the reference image that the images of the body parts are with the background without being cut, they must be like this or the edges must be removed.

Thank you

I think it just depends on the creative vision. I could see value in both approaches.
