Hey guys!

I’ve been working on some character designs trying to effectively use shape and facial features to capture archetypal dark-village characters, each a little suspicious and strange in  their own way. I intent to do a lot more of these, it’s been really fun to experiment with whcih nose shape correlates to which sort of personality for example!

In order from the top:

The medic man

The peddler

the reverend

the undertaker

the woodsman

I’d love if you would comment what sort of personalities you read into these guys :D I will do some women at some point too I’m sure!

Review with Lynsey White. 

We review on our chosen character for character essay. I’ve created a idea web, listing the characters I want to work with. I wanted to compare either Howl and Sophie from Howl’s Moving Castle. I wanted to compare them between the movie and book. While discussing with Lynsey it would be a difficult task since I haven’t read the book yet. I was suggested to read it in two days, i would happy to read it but i’m not a fast reader. Haku and Chihiro (Spirited Away)  was the other characters I wanted to compare Howl and Sophie with but there isn’t much to compare. I could talk about the art style but there isn’t much to talk about.

What I aim to do next:

I could talk about the relationship between Sophie and Howl. I would like to talk about hoe supportive they are and they both are shape shifters. (What makes them Love each other ? ) 

My other plan was to talk about the shapeshifters in Howl’s Moving Castle. I aim to compare Howl and Calcifer. I would like to talk about anthropomorphism as well.

Anthropomorphism and Animation

6th October 2015

Anthropomorphism heads back during the cave paintings. 

 Narrative compression- looks like something well known. Paredolia/Apophenia- an object which looks like a person or animal. 

Many early animation uses anthropomorphism. Lottery Reiniger is one of the famous animation silhouettes. 

 Many slapticks animation/ cartoon also uses anthropomorphism. Tom and Jerry are well known anthropomorphism cartoon. 

 There are many different style, culture and countries that uses anthropomorphism. Etc. Japan The loveable creature name totoro is a famous anthropomorphic character.
