Books and research that didn't make it into the essay.
Elements of design: Rowena Reed Kostellow and the structure of visual relationships.
Why fairy tales stick: the evolution and relevance of a genre.
Body image: understanding body dissatisfaction in men, women and children.
Make toons that sell without selling out.
The uncanny.
The designed self: Psychoanalysis and contemporary identities.
The empathy exams: essays.
Against empathy: The case for rational compassion.
Character design: from the ground up.
Visual storytelling: the art and technique
A series of book I used to research into my essay, although they provided a lot of additional research the essay its self did not include any of that additional information.
Body image: understanding body dissatisfaction in men, women and children, I found inciteful as it gave a deeper understanding into how we perceive ourselves as people. They essay began by focusing on how appearance was important in character design, therefore learning about how we see ourselves and perceive appearance was very insightful.
The designed self: Psychoanalysis and contemporary identities. A book about keeping up with newer generations. Essentially learning about keeping present with urban and popular culture. The book discuss what younger generations do, and how they behave in comparison to past generations, expressing how drug culture and alcohol have and are affecting behaviour.
Make toons that sell without selling out, a book about cartoon creating in general, but had a small chapter on character design which I found very helpful. It stated simply what a good character design needed, and what it meant to create a character design.
