ART 270 - Illustration: Character Development

FA
This studio course includes the research, creation, development, and presentation of student-conceived imaginary characters. Beginning with development of a solid foundation in human and animal anatomy, students explore different types of “Beings” from scary to cute, and different styles of representation from caricature to realism. Students develop skills for depiction of forms in space through line, mass, and comparative anatomy. The course focuses on developing well thought out fictional characters that are expertly presented in clear line drawings on comprehensive model boards.
