Body forms
This section of my visual journal was based on how characters are drawn and how their body forms play an important role as the way the character is built depend on the characteriscs they have been given. I started by looking at basic cartoon body shapes of a female and male character. Moving on to looking at all the different shapes that could be or have been use for characters that may not have that normal human form.
This is important for my research as the shape of the body gives the character life and their personality traits. For example, if you was drawing a geek I would picture them to be reasonable small as their personality traits are mainly based around them being shy. whereas, a hero I would expect to have a very built up body shape as you would not want your hero to look small and delicate.
