Analyzed Pieces:

(Concept Art from Disney's Zootopia)

This piece seems to follow the same contrasting "light and dark" sequence that we discussed in class.  It creates a sense of depth with repeating the same thing several times at various points in the piece.  (IE, the rabbits are EVERYWHERE!)  That being said, it also gives a stark size contrast between the characters.  It could also be argued that the protagonist's face falls within the rule of thirds, albeit rather loosely.

This piece definitely showcases the token "thing in foreground" to again give a sense of depth.  That being said, however, this seems to be a rather flat piece when it comes to the cityscape.  There is some "stair-stepping" of contrasting colors, but much less noticeably so.  Overall, I believe this piece may have been intended less as an actual scene and more of a general concept / look.

This is an interesting piece, as it shows some of the dynamic relationships between the inhabitants of this world.  Also, it showcases how the sizes of things greatly very, almost certainly implying some future sight gag related to size.  The general lack of concern for potentially life-threatening situations is also something to note.  Notice also the use of repetition to show depth and scale in the piece.  (Not to mention once again the contrasting colors and minor stair-stepping that is occurring.)
