CARTOON CHARACTER MAKING Many of us are highly motivated by the idea of cartoons. Cartoons are fun. They amuse and entertain us to no end. We are familiar with many cartoons mainly because of their characters. We simply love how they become mediums to tell jokes or share opinions about life and its endless interesting situations.
MOTIVATION: Look at some famous cartoon characters shown below. Can you name them?
DISCUSSION: WHAT ARE CARTOONS? Cartoon is a form of visual communication that became popular with the invention of modern newspaper and motion picture in the 20 th century. Modern cartoons were first used to attract viewers to newspapers and movies.
HOW DID THEY EVOLVE? Cartoon is as old as man. Just take a look at the walls of prehistoric cave dwellers. The earliest example of a cartoon can be found in these places. Although we do not find talking mammoths, we do find in these places something unique to all cartooning-simplification. Cartoon is an illustration of figures and situations that is simple and easy for the observer to comprehend.
CARTOON CHARACTER is a fictional character depicted in an animated film or a comic strip. Cartoon characters are as appealing to adults as well as to children. Most of the time, people just love to laugh at their tricks and bad lack. In computer-generated cartoon character art, the elements and principles of art are still use and apply even with the use of technologies.
CARTOONIST ( also comic strip creator) is a visual artist who specializes in drawing cartoons. This work is often created for entertainment, political commentary, or advertising. Cartoonists may work in many formats, such as booklets, comic strips, comic books, editorial cartoons, graphic novels, manuals, gag cartoons, graphic design, illustrations, storyboards, posters, shirts, books, advertisements, greeting cards, magazines, newspapers, and video game packaging.
Lets Watch A Video!!!
TYPES OF CARTOONS 1. EDITORIAL CARTOONING is a one-panel or stand-alone comics in which the main intent is to present an opinion. An editorial cartoon does not, however, just present opinion. It uses biting wit, caricature, and subtle humor to drive home its point. It takes sides and provokes thinking on politics and social issues.
Examples: Being single-frame, an editorial cartoon delivers its message concisely, quickly, and painlessly.
2. STRIP CARTOON the first thing that pops into your mind when you think about cartooning is COMIC STRIP. Comic Strip is a series of little drawings arranged box by box, some or all of which contain dialogue. It is a genre that has become familiar and popular to many people.
Comic strip artists must not only know how to draw, they must be a good storytellers as well. A staple in newspapers and magazines, comic strips allow us to look into the lives of the characters that inhabit them.
Examples: Comics strip are popular because people like to follow their favorite characters.
Did You Know! Talk balloon is that round bubble with a tail that floats around inside most cartoons and contains dialogue or a character’s thoughts.
3. CARICATURE some cartoons often model their characters from famous people, such as politicians or movie stars. They are often drawn in unkind way, which exaggerates certain things about them. This type of drawing is called CARICATURE. Caricatures are meant to make fun of the people they show.
A caricaturist chooses certain features about a person, such as their nose or their teeth, then draws these features in an exaggerated way. Honorè Daumier is a well known French caricaturist. He shows a French king turning into a pear.
Examples: The artist was making fun of the king, whose name is Louis Philippe for eating too much. He was also suggesting the king was a fool.
Important Aspects of the Cartoonist’s Art 1. PHYSICAL FEATURES draw the cartoon with realistic but exaggerated qualities to give them personal style and traits. cartoon and human body proportions are not necessary the same.
2. FACIAL CHARACTER like the human face, we take in cartoonish face for clues about identity, personality, and mood. it tells us a great deal about its owner whether they are male or female. old or young, pretty or ugly, intelligent or stupid, fat of thin. the face says it all.
3. FACIAL EXPRESSION the point of a cartoon is often made through facial expression. you cannot afford to let the reader miss the point, so your depiction of an inner feeling will need to be exaggerated.
4. HANDS are very expressive of character. can convey the feelings of enjoyment, anger, or fright. they bear little relationship to the hands we know in real life. 5. FEET including footwear are important features of cartoon characterization. the distortions that many cartoonists make often hilarious.
