Students will practice methods of collaborative and independent brainstorming to invent, design, and develop a portfolio of characters. Each class will start with a guided brainstorming prompt to practice new ways of generating ideas, then finish with individualized instruction to help bring the character illustrations to life—developing world building, completing finished designs through a variety of two-dimensional mediums, and more. This class is great for any students interested in illustration, designing characters, or finding new inspiration and ways of thinking creatively.
