Character and Narrative 4: Character design

For our character design we split up to create each character. I started by Creating a mood board of robots that i liked the design of. I added to this as i went.

We decided that for the story the robot ought to be cute, which would also mean simpler modelling and rigging when it came to it.

I had a go at a few different designs on my test page trying out a few ideas, and discovering they wouldnt work very well, such as having a speaker for a mouth and camera lenses for eyes; and got together with Katy again to decided on some final designs. We picked four that i explored in more detail, and then decided on a final design.

Below is the final design for the robot.
