Character Design 9

In this character design drawing i was trying to achieve the right type of colour design for a child. The ones that stood out for me was the two bottom design ideas, I especially think the right one is very child like.

For this character design I was trying to develop more colour ideas for the young super hero character. The reason why I chose these types of colours is because I like the style of Manga and realism. I believe the ones that are in light blue, yellow and green give it that child look maybe because its in a light colour, if I had to choose the one that looks more child like I would go with the yellow hair colour.

I decided to create a character design that didn't have a black out line and had shading. It took the longest to draw and had more shades of color than any other character design drawing I have created. I Like how it look more like a persons face even though it has that cartoony look about it. I found it a lot more harder to show emotion in this tip of drawing than any other drawing. I quite like the hair style in this character design sheet because it had that messy bed head look.

This is a character design of different types of faces That I was creating in my sketch book. These drawings were showing what was wrong that I needed to change. I found what I kept doing to the faces was I kept making them look to old but in different ways like the eyes were to small so it makes them look to old or a gave him a way to big of a chin so that made him look like an adult e.g e.g.

For this character design I decided to show how I got the creatchion of my characters witch are in lines with different colors. Then I drew a black out line of my character so that you can see the shape of my characters, the poses and the facial exspretion. In the last set at the bottom of the page idesided to give it some color ti show what kind of color this character like and it also helps you figure out what he is wearing, like in the little character you can see that he is wearing yellow wellington boots.

In this character design idea i tryed filling the page up with different parts of the body (closeups). I also Put more detail in the face to give it that 3D look but still keeping the black outlines. I tried doing a more movable pose than keep making him stand in one spot, it looked way more interesting and I decided to keep the guide lines I drew to make it more interesting and you can see the progress. I also didn't want to color in the cloths in this character design so i wright and colored the areas I wanted to design in color.

Character Design 3

In this character design I have used color and drew a background to make it look like he is flying. I decided to try a different way of making the character look younger by making his head look bigger than his body and give him a peanut shape head. I Kind of stayed with the same design of clothing like in the character design 1 drawing but I decided to give it color but only use green and black to give it that boy look. I also decided to change the way his hair was in the 1st and 2nd drawing and give it that flat baby looking hair.

Character Design 2

This character design was supposed to be a 3D look of the head. The key point that I was mostly looking at was trying to make the character more child like by giving him big hair, big cheeks, freckles and dots for eyes. Some areas of the character that did look child like was the freckles and the eyes, the hair didn't work even though I tried giving it a Jimmy Neutron look.

Character Design 1

My character design idea came from one of the young carers that I listened to on the voice recording of the development of their idea's. This is my first try at creating a character design of the young carers idea. I would describe this drawing as less inviting the reason why I think that is because there isn't enough design ideas on the page to show different angles and emotions of this character. I found that i tend to make the character older when i do a side view. The positive thing about this character design is that it gave me more ideas on how i could design the clothes, hair and facial expressions.

Avatar

I got a bit fed up of people saying that avatar is not animation, so I decided to find a behind the seance look of avatar when they were creating the characters.

The Thing 1982 and The Thing 2011

The reason why I posted this on my blog is because they are a different type of animation. I love that the old movie from 1982 was created with puppets and the new movie from 2011 was created with CGI. I like how the two movies were created, for example I like how the new movie is the start of the story and the old movie is the ending of the story. The detaile they have put in the movies is unbelievable.

Tank Girl Opening Credits (OP)

I was watch this video at home and saw that the opening credits had been in animation than just a normal credit seen. I love that its in a comic style and only a few objects move in the seen. I all so like how they are showing you that is was a comic before a film, so they are showing you seen's from the comics that tank girl is in.

Compare the style

Critical Evaluation

The video and the painting have there differences like character design. The faces in the video is in 3D and the shape of the face has pointy fetchers than the painting. The painting is more bright and colourful than the video in some places, the design of the girl is quite child like, it still has its innocence.

The video and painting also had its similarities like the colour choices. The colour in the video was all dark and sad colours but wants it hit the ending of the film where the wall exploded into light, a burst of colour and goodness flowed throw the darkness, it reminded me of the painting. The painting is bright just like the ending of the video its colourful and they both have the same sort of flowery design. The way the colour burst behind the women in the video just reminds me of the way the burst of colour is flowing from behind the girl in the painting.

This is what I found from the video and painting even thaw they have a different style doesn't mean they don't have the same intentions (beauty).
