Week One

Character Analysis "Dory"


We had to choose our favourite 3d cartoon character and explain why and what is was we liked about this character so much. The character i chose was Dory from "Finding Nemo."

Dory is a Regal Blue Tang who suffers from short-term Memory loss. Her lack of short term memory makes her such a comical and likeable character. She has great optimism and is such a free spirit. she has a positive point of view over everything in life.





I would like my own character to have the same likability factor dory carries, I would like my character to be enthusiastic and comical

Week One

My aim for this module is to create a historical mascot/character to appear in advertising materials which will help children become more interested in historical and archaeological subject areas. The character be based on an ancient civilisation and become an iconic and loveable character the children can identify with.

This was the first lesson of 3D Character animation, today i carried out some initial research to familiarise myself with the different ancient civilisations and try to get an idea of which time and character i wanted to focus my character on. I researched ancient civilisations and cartoon characters, from Vikings to Cavemen. I gathered many images from the Internet and created a mood board showing all these characters.
