CHARACTER AND CREATURE CREATION
The role of a Character Creator is to bring characters to life. On this course you will learn how to design, model, texture, rig and animate your own characters. You’ ll learn hands-on character and creature design skills before applying them to two major projects based on industry briefs.

ANIMATIONS
Short animations on programs like Maya or Blender can be beneficial.
SCULPTING
As well as digital sculpting, you can show us any traditional clay sculpting you’ ve tried your hand at.
A WORD OF ADVICE FROM MICHAEL DAVIES, HEAD OF CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY:
Start collecting ideas and references of the kinds of characters or creatures that you would like to be able to create. Starting the course with a plan of what to create is a great motivator but is also an amazing feeling when you achieve it!
