The Character Diversification project focuses on developing diverse three-dimensional character models. These models will be available for unrestricted use on the internet, focusing on being a resource for students learning animation. This project centered around developing seven characters of various ethnic backgrounds. Characters were taken from base concept art to fully modeled, clothed, and colored models. This project was created as a Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) Major Qualifying Project, worked on by one interactive Media and Game Development student with a concentration in technical art. This report discusses the considerations that go into a diversity-focused project, the process of building digital characters, and future prospects for this project's continuation at Worcester Polytechnic Institute.
