The Don Carson Creative Blog is a place to talk about Theme Park, Computer, and Virtual World Design. This site is composed of past articles, musings, and comments from readers. Please feel free to make comments and leave me feedback.
When I finished reading the latest “Harry Potter, and the Half-Blood Prince” I felt that the way the characters had been depicted in the films & book illustrations didn’t completely match the images in my head. It was then I thought, “Hey, wait a minute I’m and artist, I could draw them myself!” These are a few of my attempts, and are closer to the pictures I see when I am in the middle of the books.
My name is Don Carson and I am an illustrator and designer working in the worlds of theme park, theatrical, and computer game design. Jumping around in these disciplines has given me some unique insights into the differences and similarities of each form of entertainment. This is a forum for me to chronicle some of my random observations and lessons learned along the way.
