Character Design is Back! 12 March 2018

Character Design by Andrea Torrejon

Our new evening class in Character Design has proved so popular that it is returning to Escape Studios on Monday 12 March 2018.

The course is an 8 week introduction to the art and craft of character design and, as with most of our evening classes, it's a part-time course, designed to fit around jobs and families, and taught by seasoned industry professionals.

Character Design is one of the most rewarding parts of our industry - and also one of the most competitive. As with everything we do here at Escape, the class will build up to a live industry brief, with the final project mapping as closely as possible to the experience of working in an industry environment.

Students attend an evening class one night a week, and will be set simple projects to do in-class, and  more complex ones to complete by the following week.
