Concept Art for Video Games introduces students to the design side of video game development. In this workshop, we analyze different characters from popular video games with illustration challenges and group activities. Concept art is important in making characters stand out and visually convey their traits.

For instance, in our upcoming video game The Lost Journal, August is a curious adventurer who loves hiking, nature, and the great outdoors! This can be seen in his fun, dandelion-like hair, his hiking boots, and bright red sweater. The color suggests that this character is outgoing and courageous!

Create your very own character for a video game from your imagination! We take students through the design process on paper first, then work on a digital painting software using stylus pens and Chromebooks.

Key Highlights:

  • Design your very own character for a video game!
  • Discover the importance of concept art in game development.
  • Take on fun drawing challenges to enhance your skills.
  • Explore the character design process step by step.
  • Develop a character profile to bring your creation to life.
  • Build confidence with presentation and public speaking practice.
