Character expression and poses - Unscripted

Posing and expression work.

These character renders were made for Crimson Sky's Unscripted. A visual novel featuring pre-rendered images. As an animator it was challenging to present characters in static renders but also breathe life into them. This was alongside a brief that they should be realistic and not "cartoon". It was quite a tightrope to walk.

The challenge was always to convey emotion and dynamics with neither cheese nor ham.... maybe a little cheese.

In other scenes I was responsible for environment and texturing. In these, I had the job of posing and facial expressions.
