Course Program
In the first week, before we start working on the character, we'll break down primitive anatomy, practicing putting a model consisting of simple figures into a pose based on references.
The face is the most important part of a character. This week we'll go into detail about the anatomy of the head, face, and drawing basic emotions. To top it all off, you will learn about shape language and learn how to use it to design your character. Practice will consist of drawing a face and stylizing it into different shapes.
Creating a character doesn't come without a concept and finding references, so in week 3 we'll teach you how to think about the idea, how to choose the right references. You'll also learn how to convey volume and form. Learn the hallmarks of casual style and make a sketch of a character and his adorable pet :)
In week 4, before we start rendering the finished sketch, we will learn the laws of light and shadow, which are necessary for rendering any 2D objects. We will practice rendering in black and white the poses made up of the primitives we learned how to render in week one.
The last, fifth week of the course will be devoted to rendering a character and his pet. We will study the subtleties of casual rendering, as well as how to choose a palette. We will understand how to render clothes and especially hair, how to make shapes volumetric and how to use light, occlusion and drop shadows.
Course duration: 5 weeks
