Overview
Through a step-by-step approach, participants will learn the stages of character design and development in this workshop. By looking at different examples of character designs, from those in games to those in children’s books, and working with clay and sketches, participants will develop an understanding of body proportions, consistency, expression and movement of characters in a variety of situations. This workshop is for illustrators who want to use their skills to create their own original characters for animation, comics, children’s books, gaming, graphic design and theatre design.
