Creating Characters with Personality: For Film, TV, Animation, Video Games, and Graphic Novels
Editorial Reviews Book Description • Character design is the key in many industries-and they're all covered in this book
• Practical step-by-step exercises
• Contributors include Glen Keane, Supervising Animator, Disney
From Snow White to Shrek, from Fred Flintstone to SpongeBob Square-Pants, the design of a character conveys personality before a single word of dialogue is spoken. Creating Characters with Personality shows artists how to create a distinctive character, then place that character in context with a script, establish hierarchy, and maximize the impact of pose and expression. Practical exercises help readers put everything together to make their new characters sparkle. Lessons from the author, who designed the dragon Mushu (voiced by Eddie Murphy) in Disney's Mulan-plus big-name experts in film, TV, video games, and graphic novels-make a complex subject accessible to every artist. About the Author Tom Bancroft has been an animator for more than fifteen years, working for Disney and Big Idea Productions (producers of Veggie Tales). Most recently, he contributed to Disney's Brother Bear. He lives in Franklin, TN
