abstract
Within the scope of Illustration and Animation, we intend to explore how
practical and creative work can be developed from the influences of other
individuals, considering their imagery and creative points of view. Widespread
access to new technologies has made it possible to communicate
and share our thoughts and ideas easily, where the platform Twitch has
allowed us to work on what we propose.
In this article we address the potential of Twitch as a mediating platform
to develop ideas for characters, while exploring concepts related to
co-creation. This co-creation work resulted in the exploration of those
ideas launched by the followers in sketches and illustrated digital work.
This research was part of a study to an animated short project developed
during master’s degree of illustration and animation.
We have realized the value of sharing the artistic process online, due to
the real-time development of the ideas of different stakeholders; and
this co-creation methods resulted in the exploration of the ideas launched
by the followers, in sketches and illustrated digital work. Although
the project varied due to the diversity of the participants, brainstorming
remained constant, which made it possible to explore concepts such as
creativity and integration.
