Designing unholy abominations may be fun, but it is also hard work. There is method to the madness. Creature designers combine knowledge of real world animals and fantastic ideas with clear and communicative sketching. In this lecture, Molly Heady-Carroll will take you through the entire gruesome process of designing creatures. Molly works in games and animation as an Art Director and Creature Designer for projects such as "Tangledeep", "Zenibeasts" and "Hammerwatch". Her methods may be unconventional, but her creations might just be crazy enough to work. It's alive… IT'S ALIVE!
