Learn to plan and organize you characters based on the most effective techniques of the moment” 

If there is something that has changed completely in the world of video games it is the improvement in graphics. Not only the color and quality of the images, but, above all, the spontaneity with which the characters move and the continuity that they have acquired between one scene and the next. A few years ago it was unnatural to see Spyro flying awkwardly and not making player immersion possible due to the lack of naturalness. However, this aspect has improved over the years thanks to different techniques and advances such as the model sheet.

The model sheet is an essential part of the design of any character. Thanks to this we will work on aspects such as body language or proportions, among others. The objective is to maintain continuity of a character from scene to scene, which is very important in its creative development. The model folder is therefore a vital element in the development of the characters of a video game in which it is possible to work on all the necessary elements of the character.
