|
Learn to create your own protagonists with no limit but your own imagination
Concept artist J. Alexander Guillen, who specializes in film and video games and has worked for Filmax Animation, Epic Games, and Ubisoft, is adamant that creating a character for concept art is not only about designing their appearance, but also giving them personality. His work is clearly influenced by his dreams, which allow him to create universes and characters with a conceptual imagery based on fantasy.
In this online course, learn to create a character, from the first sketch to the finishing touches, using classic and digital techniques. Get inspired by your imagination and let go of the limits of reality.
Begin by getting to know Alexander as he talks about his professional career, his work, and his biggest influences. Then dive right into the world of concept art by searching for visual references to help you create your character.
Next, Alexander tells you about the materials he typically uses and shows you how he creates the preliminary sketches, to be scanned and edited digitally later on.
When you’re done sketching, start working on your piece in Photoshop. This is where you add the first strokes of color to achieve volume in the shapes.
Finish preparing your illustrations before Alexander teaches you some tips and tricks for putting together a professional presentation for the client.
