Cloud + DLP

Bunny's Cloud Lecture:

You do your worst work when you think you know an object.

The light of the dark is the dark of the light. Alternate: Make the dark side darker than the light.

Details in the midtone.

• Cumulus
• Puffs of cotton with flat bottoms.
• Scales down when they recede.
• Stratus
• Low, flat. Brings rain/snow.
• Becomes fog when they're close to the ground.
• Linger for days.
• Cirrus
• Thin, fuzzy edges.
• High up.
• Made of ice.
• Cumulonimbus
• Cumulus with snow and rain.

Clouds do not travel. They disperse and form elsewhere.

DLP Critique

• Multiple characters designs
• Clarity - Make things clear enough for a modeler. Keep in mind silhouette and volume.
• Shape variations - Design multiple characters using at least three different heads. Do not be restricted by guidelines. If given the prompt "poor", not all of the poor are skinny.
• Backstory - Have posture show backstory. Design shapes after a clear definition of the personality and cater the shapes to that.
• Hands - Expressive. Don't fall short on hands and feet.
• Props, Hairstyles - Good for customization. Have glasses mirror the eyes. Big glasses for awe and small for sneaky.
• Push - It's better to push a design to the breaking point than to seem as if a concept is stuck on one design.
• Environment - Don't be wary of adding people if it helps with the mood. Keep it sparse enough so that the environment is readable.
• Portfolio - Include disliked ideas (as long as they are done well) for someone else may like them.
