In one week we will create a character from an idea to a finished project in a portfolio. We will learn how to work with ideas, construction, color. We will learn how to present the character. There are two options for participation – “Delicious” for independent work and “Full Stuffing” in groups with feedback. Only Yummy is available now.
What will be on the course?
Day 1
We’ll figure out how to find ideas for our characters. We’ll brainstorm, learn how to put together a moodboard and start drawing our first sketches. You can watch this day for free to understand the quality of the lessons.
Day 2
Character Building
We’ll understand basic anatomy, proportions and stylization. Using simple examples, learn how to work with emotions. We will apply the knowledge in the final sketches of the future character.
Day 3
Choosing the best sketch
Group call, where we will analyze everyone’s work. I will check homework, help correct mistakes.
Day 4
Work with color
We will tell you how to choose the color scheme and convey the emotion of the character. We will experiment a lot with color proofs. We will start the final drawing of the character.
Day 5
Textures, details and accents. We’ll add a little bit of zest to the character.
Day 6
Organizing the project
Let’s understand what a portfolio is and where to display it. We will formalize the development of our character into a full-fledged project, which will not be ashamed to show to customers.
Day 7
Sorting out projects
Final call – we will summarize the results, I will give personal recommendations. We will exchange our impressions.
