The Finch in Dodo High

This project is centered around creating personal designs for characters as part of a pitch for a new show on television. The Finch in Dodo High is a show aimed at a young pre-teen audience, focusing on a world of cats and birds, with the cat protagonist, Nick Finch, spending time with his bird friends as they attend and survive high school together. The process transfers hand drawn line work to colorful digital images. The goal is to provide a cohesive step-by-step guide showing animators and TV producers the inspiration and breakdown of the characters as well as how to draw them.
