by Brian C. Hailes (Author)
Draw It With Me - Creating Character Designs with Impact at the Heart of Your Story bridges the gap between the technique of drawing unique characters and the theory of solid character design as it relates to varying story genres. From award-winning writer and artist, Brian C Hailes, who shares his industry secrets, this art book takes a focused visual approach to help you develop your own impactful ideas, make your stories memorable, and captivate your audience through-first, and foremost-the creation of interesting characters.
Explore what is it about some of our favorite characters from books, films, and games that make us laugh, cry, or otherwise respond emotionally. We'll take a shot at these questions and many more, including taking a comprehensive look at what makes a character appealing, understanding key principles such as shape language, proportion, and exaggeration, and learn to create original, compelling characters using archetypes and design elements like shadow and line, varying camera angles, texture, and perspective. With the tips and techniques found in this image-packed book, you'll get the most out of your study of anatomy, gesture, expression, and costume.
Uncover ways to convey relationships and interaction between multiple characters, and how narrative fuels authentic and engaging characterization. With hundreds of lively illustrations to inspire and study, and tricks of the trade, this thorough and insightful volume is an essential library addition for anyone interested in the art of character design.
