Character Design

畫作/寫作 By: J.Tzeng7297 ( C )

This one is for people that are interested in how to design characters; well character design has a lot of stages.

1. What kind of character is in your story, what is their personality?

2. Research on your subject, what period is the character live in, what kind of clothes do they wear and so on, until you got enough information to start on the drawing.

3. The drawing part, start with very loose and rough drawing of the pose, the action what you want the character to say to the viewer.
4. Focus on the shape of each character; they need to have a very strong shape that show who they are.

5. Make sure the drawing is solid, I mean by solid is the drawing have to be correct, the character can not have one arm longer or the eyes is off place and so on.

6. After you got your main idea down on paper, now really think about the character, put yourself in them. If you are a director and you going to hire an actor or actress, who will it be? That’s what you need to think about, what kind of character fit in your story that you are trying to design.
7. After you got all that down, put another piece of paper over it and redraw it, but not copy it…try to fix things make the design and the drawing better.

8. Once finish the clean drawing, you can put some color on it. But try to understand what color fit the character the best, the best thing to do is make some copy at a copy machine. Than test out the color on the copy, so this way you will not make a mistake on the original drawing.
9. Key note is really think about the character, as if they were alive how would they do things. This will help to bring out the character and the right design for it.

10. Just have fun drawing it, but don’t fall in love with your drawing. If you don’t feel is right, than get a new paper start over again. Also if you see some part of drawing is not correct, than change it. Don’t fake it or cheat it, because others will see that same thing you see. Trust me it will happen^^

Wow! How amazing it is! It’s really a big job to finish a picture. You are not only drawing, but also give a life to it and the characters in it.

I love the first one. They both get happiness whatever the giver or the receiver. That’s a beautiful mind communication.

I’m also glad to talk to you. But I’m sorry that you have to stand my poor English.

How stange it is! I just tried to ask you about your thinking, but I have never thought you also have had the same idea. Actually, I’m teaching English for children aged 4~12 and teenager in junior high schools. Although there are many storybooks in Taiwan, I think we still need more suitable to Taiwanese children because many of storybooks from overseas are not suitable to them. If you are really interested or any books done by you, I can try asking several publishers in Taiwan for you. Also, I am teaching in Taiwan, I know what topic, small detail or idea are good or needed for Taiwanese children. Probably I may offer you some to you to make some great storybooks suitable Taiwanese children. Not only it will make you famous faster but only give Taiwanese children a good luck to read more good storybooks.

Actually, that’s just one of my ideas I have had before. Sometimes, I wonder to make a story from my experiences from my teaching or daily life with children. But, I am not good at drawing and busy, so forget it.

Why did I tell you we still need some storybooks suitable with the children in Taiwan. I try to tell you simpely about the long story.

1. Although it’s good the overseas storybooks tell readers in Taiwan about their experiences and cultures in their countries, if there are more books can talk about Taiwanese culture, daily life or school life, that will be cooler because tha’s children’s true life and they will feel touched with the experiences they have. That’s another help for children in Taiwan in different way.

2. The books also can be issued and around the world and let people around the world know more about Taiwan.

3. There are a lot of words in some of overseas storybooks. Their grammar orders and rules are not suitable to English learners in Taiwan. The time or quantity of words wroten on the books are not suitable to English learners in Taiwan. The different learners in the different grades need different books.

Of course, there are some people considered these problems and have started doing something. But, your join is still great. But, I think we both are busy and still have some work to do. So, let’s take easy and slow to try. Then, the same problem as your good friend in Taiwan and you just won’t be happened again.

I agree it’s not easy to get a publisher. So, please give me a little time to know something about the market, publishers and getting some ideas from my friends also being English teachers. That just can really help you. Actually, I’m also worried probably I can’t help you anything finally and make you disappointed. Then I will be very sorry.

Wow! You have been a teacher before. Teaching is really interesting. Actually I worked in the trading companies for many years before I taught English. But, I prefer teaching and love it. Now I am thinking to be a manager of cram school to learn and try different things.

真想告訴你:總是吹奏的得意又歡喜,全是一些童謠快樂曲。為什麼不問我?讓我告訴你,我要聽些大人的幻想曲。都不懂我雖然是小小的年紀,心中也有躲著小秘密。真想告訴你,我的小憂鬱,可是不知從那裡開始來說起!

看到第一張圖,讓我想到我小時候也曾像那小孩般純真

懂的施捨~懂的憐惜

但長大後就漸漸失去了那些所謂”溫暖”的東西了......

我上面的回應,是看你最下面這張圖,用我的直覺去猜想那小女生的想法。
你留給我的留言,我翻不出你想告訴我的,我的英文真的很差。真不好意思!
