Character Design for Game

This masterclass encourages you to embrace your own artistic style while learning how to design iconic, compelling characters that best serve the requirements of gameplay. The primary goal of the day is to guide you through a complete design process that explores the importance of research, concept development, and presentation of your chosen character option. An additional aspect of this course is to realise the potential a character has in helping to define a game’s identity and marketing strategy. This workshop is appropriate for design students and industry professionals seeking one-on-one tutoring customised to your technical skill level and experience.
