Character and Narrative: Finalised Turnaround

Character and Narrative
Finalised Turnaround
  • This week I produced a finalised turnaround sheet for Teddy, the turtle character who will be the focus of our short animation. We decided to change the line style to a graphite pencil, so it would appear textured and provide more of a hand-drawn aesthetic. In order to help improve on my turnaround, I used the book Creative Character Design by Bryan Tillman to assist with this process, as in Chapter 9, "Putting it all Together", explains mistakes and how to keep a turnaround consistent.
  • I think this could be further improved with more detailing in the line work, to balance with the simple colours, or adding textures to the turtles' design. 
  • We chose these as it fit well with our younger (3+) target audience and from a storytelling perspective, allowed the turtle to stand out from it's siblings, whom will be green and orange.
