Inspiration - We have seen superheroes in movies, like Incredibles 2. There is a lot of work behind creating superheroes for the movie screen. Teams of artists do sketches, paintings, and digital drawings to design outfits that think about character powers. They work together as a team to create concepts for character design and development in order to create the digital work scenes for the movie. Check out some Incredibles 2 design work here, and more on this website: https://movies.disney.com/the-art-of-incredibles-2-gallery-characters?image_id=5b1ec9bfc09778131e762e51
