Your Quest Map
Visual Development
The best stories are told in the details you don’t notice at first glance. To carve out the world and characters in your head, you must utilize your visual storytelling abilities to do so.
Visual development is the foundation of bringing stories to life on screen. It is the process of designing the look and feel of a world before it is animated.
In AFA, you will explore how design choices influence storytelling, learning to translate narrative ideas into compelling visual cues that indicates the personality of your character and world.
