Top Down Visualizing Processing

This image is a fan art rendering of the animated show "South Park" that seemed like a good example of top down visual processing. The image is rendered in a very different art style than the show itself and its goal is to  display various South Park characters in this form. Another goal is that this image acts as fan tribute for all sorts of characters, even obscure ones. Finding certain characters in this art style may be difficult due to the vast difference of the show's actual cheap appearance to this much more visually appealing drawing of the show. Aside from having various character, the image has everyone in different clothing and are in different poses. A viewer's eye might be instantly drawn to the top where there are 4 enlarged characters and a bright light. There is so much going on with all the characters, yet there is a certain order. The goal is really a visual tribute to the shows, the artist showing off their fandom for the series in an manga style while clearly putting the show's logo to avoid confusion. First time looker's eyes might move all over the picture and try to recognize their favorite characters in mange style.
