Character Study
The Character Study assignment tasks students with developing their own interpretation of a randomly selected title and using this title to develop a clear and engaging visual narrative and richly detailed and appealing set. All of the characters and the worlds that the inhabit are of the students’ own imagining. These students were encouraged to base these narratives on their personal experience as South Africans. The students were also tasked with adhering to a style cue, and could choose from: film noir; period; western; grotesque; theatrical; idealised.
