Two inspring quotes that will help create my characters for the book..
“The most important thing about building a character is to start on the inside… and layer on all the different qualities that make the person unique.”
- Ellen Wittlinger
This quote will help me greatly in understanding about creating a character than has a symbolical charm about it. Keeping it unique from other books, I want the characters design to predominately control the overall aesthetics too the whole stories design (Backgrounds/Objects etc)
“The two most important things to have in a picture book character are uniqueness and relatability… Finding the balance between those two is the trick to creating a really strong character with potential longevity."
- Crystal Allen
This is what sparks my creativity and plugs my mind.. I want to make a character that CHILDREN CAN RELATE TOO.
I don't want it to become too much of a cliché for the character literally forming everyday aspects of children's lives.. But I want to pick up on certain aspects and draw from situations that used to make me feel uncomfortable when I was a child from Northern England.
