ILL 301.8 Once Upon a Character
Brief summary:
This project requires us to visualise, illustrate and design a well-crafted and captivating character, whilst also providing a glimpse of the world in which they live. All elements forming part of this project, should ultimately be presented as an unfolding, digital, vertical narrative; momentarily immersing the viewer into an imaginary, but believable world as they scroll from top to bottom.
Deliverables :
01 | Vertical narrative
02 | (x6) body poses
03 | (x5) Facial expressions
04 | Short written narrative
Design Strategy :
The presented project takes a look into the world of a prideful African witch doctor who gets served a taste of his own medicine. The atmosphere is dark and scary, to emphasise the danger of this character and his dark magic. The colours used are bold and striking which also make comment to the personality of the character .
