Character Design : Session 1

 

Character Design : Session 1

I was given my set of criteria for my character design for this unit. I got a Shark, Diva in the UPA animation style. That is set in a 50's MGM Dance Musical, having a musical night out on the town while dancing.

The first part of the session was researching a object, before designing it to look like it belongs to someone and seeing that character in the object.



During this first session I researched my conceit, this being UPA animation while doing some drawing of sharks. Mainly I was trying to understand the style of UPA and trying to apply it to the character I was given in the class and my character as a shark.

Attempt 1.

Second attempt.

Inciting Incident This would be where the rest of the astronauts leave our main character Mark Watney on mars after presuming him dead in a storm. He instead doesn't die and manages to make it to the relative safety of the space habitat where he stops himself from bleeding to death. Before the audience is told about marks plans on how to stay alive fighting the main problem he faces in the whole ...

Minor: Song Lyrics

  Minor: Song Lyrics Planet 3 Lyrics:   This will be the song that plays at the start and the end of the animation it will set the mood for the animation and start the  audience's  perception of the retro Sci-Fi  styling.   Key words I would like the song to reflect   Space, gravity, Rocket, Planet, Port, Station, Stars,  Milkyway , Launch Bay, Shuttle   The Idea as it is now is to have the song fit a big band brass genre of music as  such,  I will be looking for help to produce the song in the future.     When you're sitting there with a frown   you feel  like  gravit ies  pulling you down.   You know the place you’d rather be.   Oh, Meet me on planet three.     Come  hear  for easy  drinkin   Now the universe is  a  shrinkin .   The favourite space port in the sky   Will make you want to  flight  so high.     At the end of...
