BÁRBARA,

Anarchy and violence spread through the city with the sole aim of obtaining food, water, and shelter. Bárbara wanders from factory to factory, leading a syndicate to overthrow the powerful forces enslaving the population.

LUCIO

In the character creation master's program at Animum, various styles are explored, one of which is cartoon. In this project I present to you, I have been fortunate to have the support of Almudena Redondo. It has been a real challenge for me as it is the first time I have created a character in this style.
Let me introduce you to Lucio. Here is his technical sheet provided by Animum:
Name: Lucio
Sex: Male
Age: 70 years old
Characteristics: Stubborn, dreamer, cheerful
Backstory: Lucio has just retired, but the house feels too big for him, and the arguments with his wife are becoming increasingly unbearable. In his free time, and without anyone knowing, he is building his own boat to fulfill his dream of sailing around the world

I want to thank all the mentors I have had during this training. It has been a unique experience, learning the process of creating a character, whether it is a realistic type for movies or video games, or a cartoon type, which has been quite a challenge for me. I hope to continue learning by creating more characters. Just thinking about the opportunity to create a character for a studio is a significant step forward for me.

I want to thank: Jean Fraisse, Pau Pujades, Anthony Lorente, Rafater, Almu Redondo, and Alfonso Blaas.
