Research and Planning: e4 And The Brief.

Designing an esting

The characters where intended to be as characteristic as possible to make up for the lack of speech, so this is why I decided to use toys, as they fit my idea of gathering a new audience due to the child like characteristics of the toys. I think the over 16's will appreciate this approach, as it applies to different types of people who will relate to the theme and style of the esting. The characters will b every dynamic in their movements so i can take advantage of the maneuverability of the the toys especially the action men how i can twist and turn them to move and stand how I want to. The action men have a rough exterior, and are portrayed that way in their movements with their arms crossed being hesitant, but at the end they will end up joining in on the fun the other toys are having. the other soft toys are portrayed how they are designed so they all move differently as the black creature will move around on his side because he struggles to stand up.
