Visual Communication Briefing

Today we had our briefing for our new project, visual communication! We don't know everything yet but so far we know were going to be looking at character design and making gifs which I'm very excited for because I've never made a GIF before! I also really enjoy character design and I feel its something I do quite naturally so hopefully I wont find this module such a slog. 

Ive picked the song I'll be making my gifs based on, its Please by Blanck Mass. Although this isn't something I would usually listen to, I found it by far the most emotive of the other options on the list. While listening to it it made me think of wobbling, vibrations, echoes and dripping noises. I felt like it was the kind of sound I would listen to whilst I was going on a long walk somewhere and it makes me think of journeys and lonely people. I'm going to start character designing tomorrow but for now, heres some of the best ones from our session today. This sessions helped me get back into the idea of creating little faces and micro-expressions.

ABOVE ALL, WHEN CHARACTER DESIGNING I NEED TO REMEMBER TO SIMPLIFY WHERE POSSIBLE.
