Gnomon Workshop - Character Design for Animation Part 1

Categories: Graphic and Design, Tutorial

Written By: BitterRoad

In this DVD, Gil Rimmer simultaneously develops two characters, Francis and Paulo, who are classic pugilists in a fictional turn of the century metropolis. This first in a two DVD series focuses on creating the faces and heads of the two fighters, using dynamic silhouettes, rhythms, graphic design and composition principles. Gil stresses the various visual relationships within individual characters while addressing the complementary relationship between the two fighters. Through a methodical process, beginning with a design brief followed by reference gathering, through traditional approaches to silhouette design and ending on detailed ortho- graphic views and expression sheets, Gil shares his thoughts about the design process and its place in the animation production pipeline.
