Together we will explore some foundational parts of the character design process such as: ideation and reference collection, the storyline, shape language, silhouetting, and briefly touch upon other elements and resources that\u2019ll help you in your character design journey! We will later use the flour sack method as a foundation for applying some of the ideas discussed above! By the end of this workshop, you\u2019ll have gained an elementary understanding of the character design process and will leave equipped with the tools needed to continue building your independent practice. (Participants are recommended to have a basic interest or familiarity with drawing (think elaborate stick figures, nothing fancy!)<br><br>Feel free to bring your preferred drawing medium, such as a tablet or pencil and paper.<br><br><strong>Friday 03\/24\/2023<br>Time:&nbsp;<\/strong>7:00 P.M.<br><strong>Location:<\/strong>&nbsp;L 311, 2 W 13th St.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/e5a77d19fcd8bbeed16ad89a8\/images\/4b8662f6-d289-e297-b8c8-9250a8df4a16.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Character Creation 101Have you always been interested in drawing characters but aren\u2019t quite sure where to start?&nbsp;This workshop with Parsons&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":15497,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[2,16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15496","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
