Versions – faces

04as some of you know, I have been working on a pitch video for my newest venture into gaming called versions. This is the AI character that I created. She is called Gwendolyn and she is the guide that the main has to guide him along in the game.

I created her with the specific purpose of seeming odd and slightly off putting. She is kind of the embodiment of the Iphone app “siri” and as such has to fall deep into the uncanny valley.

Because she is a computer program I also designed her to be somewhat sexless, to make the player feel even more at odds with this helpful hand.

The exciting thing about this stage in the game, is that I am only a couple of steps from actually animating the character, which I am looking very much forward to. So, I hope to be back with some great animations in a small while.
