I'm like a Bird - Nelly furtado

actually ... I'm trying to be like a bird. When i wrote Nighthawk i really wasn't thinking on my character i just thought "NIGHTHAWK" sounded very cool for a -nature-superhero. SO, the first thing that comes to my mind is obviosly is G-Force (Gatchaman) here some images:

and some videos:

And so, that was my base for Nighthawk. For the personality i thought first of a goofy character. The superhero that seems to be brave but he is not. (like, King Julian Madagascar) and but then i thought that will be sort of FLASHish. so ...then i said..ok so, i've done Astolfo (douchebag machoman), Flash (goofy, nerdi ratman) and.... why not make nighthawk sort of mistical. SO, i tought of raven (teen titans) ... some pictures and videos (DO LOOK THEM PLEASE!!! SO YOU CAN KEEP TRACK OF MY CHARACTER BUILDING (and compare the process with my end result)):

so...that's what i'm working on... I hope that somehow this stuff will help with nighty.

NOW! on the rehearsals, we've been doing scenes with our minies (carlos) wich have to act the same as we do...and its very helpful when starting to build a character. It is helping me a lot. we chritique each other, not only with mini-nighty but also with sparkies and arrows. I like this exercise.

I wonder, is carlo's thinking the same as I do...or it is just doing what i'm telling him to do? and is this mini work good because i can see my same exact character ..actually LOOKING at it..or its because i'm building another character that i like and adapting it to my own?

  1. Good entry. I love Raven, go for it. Very interesting final question, makes you think about what is actually needed to make a character.
