- media can affect the character's feel and can inform its design
- be uninhibited and playful! allow yourself to be frustrated and in turn discover new things through this!
- written dialogue can be a helpful aid to the visuals!
- investing labour into a piece can intensify ideas and help identify strengths and weaknesses especially in terms of media. in turn, quick roughs are good for initial idea generation. Make a balance of these, switch up the time spent on specific pieces in sketchbook.
- this said, investing too much time into a piece can make you overly attached and oblivious to criticism. Just because something took a long time does not necessarily mean it's good.
- Don't be precious in sketchbooks!!
I really enjoyed the character drawing day, mainly for its plain silliness. I wouldn't say my interests lie in a particular area but I do enjoy the surreal. The idea generator was a good starting point for creating ideas that well, I wouldn't have thought to think about!
