I had the opportunity to be one of the judges for the 2023 BenQ DesignVue contest. The task for contestants was to design an original character inspired by Pantone’s Color of the Year, Viva Magenta. In this video I will share my opinion about all the best entries and what made them stand out. I will also talk to Dorottya Parkanyi, one of the winners, who created a fun and quirky character in Blender, about her workflow.
