mix-and-match corporate memphis people pack

April 28, 2023 5:29 AM

I want to make a short presentation with a few recurring storybook-esque human characters. I'm looking for a vector package of humans in the "corporate memphis" or some other faceless style. Ideally it would contain male and female presenting people in different poses (standing up, sitting down, side and front profile, different arm positions representing different activities and emotional states, etc.) and maybe some different hairstyles that could be dropped on paper-doll style to differentiate the characters. I'm willing to pay but it would be great if I could try it out free or cheap, since this is a non-commercial passion project that I may well abandon.

Best answer: I think humaaans might be just what you’re looking for.

Response by poster: Thanks so much, I hadn't seen this and it's very very close to what I'm looking for! The only dealbreaker is the arms, which are uniformly in a distinctive energetic pose that is kind of distracting and doesn't match the content of some of the slides in the presentation, which deal with stress and sadness caused by an unjust situation.

Would People Party work?

If you find a style you like with faces (like this or this), you could always draw a shape the same color as the skin in your slide to cover up the face.

Response by poster: Updating my own question for any future askers: the magic search term for this is "vector character constructors".
