New Characters

After finishing the first part of this project, we decided to move onto new characters and concepts in order to make more of a world around the characters we have already introduced.

We discussed different ideas for how we could introduce these new characters and also the kind of character we would like to make. We looked into general performers that you would find in a circus.

In the end, we decided to go for performers that would allow us to create the most interesting movements to animate. Meg decided to create a contortionist, Will a juggler and Ringmaster and I decided to make a trapeze artist.

I had the idea of these two characters straight away, there is something so unnerving about the idea of  identical twins, moving in unison in identical clothing.
