Tracking human height on a flat surface is a standard perspective skill, but figuring out how tall a character should be when they walk up a flight of stairs or stand on a raised platform requires a different approach. In this lesson, we cover how to track height on non-level and elevated planes. You will learn how to use vanishing points and vanishing traces to keep your characters in proportion as they move up inclines. We also go over a simple method for moving a character up onto a platform or down into a recession. By finding their height on the ground plane first, you can easily shift them vertically without losing their correct scale.
