Keywords:
Characters’ creation, Script, Games, Plot, TeachingAbstract
This paper presents the development of a website which facilitates and improves the creation of characters, organizing several information related to the creation in a project, whether related to game stories, films or to various entertainment products, aiming to help beginning developers to optimize the process of creating a game, as well as students in the development of essays, scripts, etc. The creation of a website which organizes the characters attributes helps the user to conceptualize/define the visual identity of his/her character, and also the creation of stories, fanfics or collaborative essays. Thus, this paper assists professors/students in writing classes, for instance, as it provides a script for the characters creation, which are determinants for the creation of different plots and stories. In addition, it is possible to work on creating the characters’ image (Arts classes) due to the wealth of attributes the system provides the user.
