New Project: Claudia and Quentin

Recently, we have been set a new project to create 2 characters, a girl named Claudia and a boy named Quentin, who will appear in a music video.  We were given descriptions of both Claudia and Quentin to start our research and design process.

Claudia is a young girl in her 20's, she was left alone a lot as a child, meaning she had little parental guidance.  She doesn't really leave her kitsch style home, and has an unhealthy obsession with Horror Movies,  she spends most days watching them.

She is an AGORAPHOBIC, and models herself on the female figure of the horror movies she watches, changing her style in both hair, make up and styling to the different girls in the film each day.  Even though she seems quite guarded, she can also be seen as quite humorous sometimes. 

Quentin is Claudia's imaginary boyfriend, so is a constant disappointment.  He doesn't change his style often, but when he does…it again is influenced from characters from horror films.  Quentin seems very weak, and is firmly under Claudia's thumb. 

My thoughts on Claudia and Quentin

To me, Claudia is a very twisted girl, with a dark, almost sultry style.  She is controlling, and this is portrayed within her style using sharp, sleek shapes and dark colours. 

Quentin is a weak boy, with a rugged style, that is not at all polished.
