CG Workshop: Building Realistic Characters

Kent Trammell is hosting the first CG Cookie Workshop in November, focusing on character design.

This is the first run of character modeling workshop that I intend to be part of a “Building Character” series: Realism, Stylized, and Creature. The focus here this time is Realism. Thus the workshop delves deep into the art of character creation, inspired by the great character work from Blur Studios, Digic Pictures, and artists like Baldasseroni and Grassetti.

This workshop will include weekly assignments, livestreams, and 1-on-1 feedback to facilitate a personal and intentional online learning experience. Students are expected to have at least a fundamental knowledge of Blender’s interface and modeling tools. The advanced-level curriculum will result in a high-quality, realistic character model by the end of the six-week schedule.

This six-week workshop is priced at $499.
