Hi there, some characters I designed for the Animation Master by the
U-TAD (Digital Art and Technology University, Madrid). So they are converted into CGI characters for the students to learn and play with. I can't wait to see the animations they will do during the Master.
It had to be a family with 5 different characters (a ball, a puppet, a human and a winged creature).
In the following images I illustrate the process we followed to get to those ones. We started from scratch and it was fun to do.
I hope you like it too. ^_^

First proposals of themes for the family (each horizontal row is a theme). The chosen one was the bottom one, inspired in the 60's rock bands, and we called it U-Band, to go with the name of the school. |
 |
Variations over the chosen theme. To choose colours, style and shape |
 |
Boy and girl. Colour. The girl should be designed as a variation of the boy. Keeping the main body, proportions and as many features as possible. |
 |
Some poses and props to interact with (giving some ideas for animation) |
 |
Zebra. Colour. |
 |
Zebra model sheet. One of them. |
 |
DJ puppet model sheet. One of them too. As an example. |
