Service Description

Ever wondered what makes a character truly stand out in a movie, game, or comic? In this dynamic, hands-on workshop, you’ll dive into the world of character design and learn how to create original, memorable characters that tell a story. We’ll explore key design techniques, including: - Silhouette – A strong outline helps make a character instantly recognisable, even in shadow. You’ll learn how to use shape and posture to make your designs readable and iconic. - Palette – Colour choices do more than just look nice. We’ll explore how colour sets mood, reflects personality, and helps tell a story through your character’s design. - Exaggeration – Stylising features like size, movement, or expressions makes characters more expressive and dynamic. You'll learn how to push ideas just far enough to be memorable without losing clarity. - Shape Language – Circles, squares, and triangles can say a lot. We’ll look at how different shapes communicate traits like strength, friendliness, or danger. By the end of the session, you’ll have a collection of sketches and a fully realised character concept — ready to fit into your own game, comic, or animated world. No experience needed, just creativity and curiosity.
