Painting Visdev Sets & Props with Yuhki Demers
$95.00
Special 4-week workshop – Sign-ups open Monday Oct. 14!
If you’ve taken my visdev fundamentals class you know how I design things, but we didn’t get through a lot of the actual painting.
In this workshop I want to take you through my entire painting process. We’ll start with a solid drawing and take it to finish. From ‘The Emoji Movie’ to all three ‘Spider-Verse’ films, this is the process I’ve used my entire career as a visual development artist.
It’s no secret that painting takes a ton of time. Normal class structure can limit demo time, so this workshop will be spectator only, but I encourage you to ask a ton of questions while I work.
We’ll cover:
- My Painting Workflow
- Photoshop Tips and Tricks
- Organizing Layers
- Value Grouping
- Rendering Materials
- Brushes
- Basic Lighting
