Games Design On Campus - Option 2 Creating Characters for Games – Lego Minifig

Creating Characters for Games – Lego Minifig

All the great characters in games, from Mario to Lara Croft have been designed by teams of character and 3D artists. In this exercise you will be stretching your creative muscles and designing characters of your own. Students will be introduced to key concepts of character design and asked to create their own design concepts for a short pitch and discussion of their character ideas. Students will create a mood board of ideas and inspirations, write a brief character prompt, create designs and add elements to the character templates, develop ideas on new templates, finalise three characters and even have the option to provide their character with a companion animal. Design a player character based on your favourite media (books, TV etc.) for a fictitious Lego game. You must use the Lego minifig template as a base.
