Here are a few doodles from my sketch book of character ideas for my upcoming Librarian character:
I will be developing the chappy with the monocle further into some 3D sculpts.
 
Meet Jessica, the Chinese Crested with attitude. She shares a little cottage with my Grandmother Judith and her rather hairier powderpuff doggy friend Jasmine. She exudes so much character that I felt I just had to make a stop-motion character based on her!
Here are a few doodles of my hairless friend:
 
For my current project I have been set an open brief to explore and develop...

I have decided to create a character: a librarian, an old man who has told so many stories in his life that he has become the stories. Whilst this is the idea that my work will be based on the aesthetic qualities for this project will not be important although I will develop some work in this area and it will be loosely based on this idea; It is the craft based skills in terms of puppet making (stop-motion and theatre) that I want to develop and explore. However this is a project that I would like to continue through to completion past the deadline and it is then that I will bring all the skills that I have learnt throughout this module into practice to create the Librarian and his story.

Some initial sketches and models for the Librarian
