Aesthetic Exploration for Vis Dev with Kellan Jett 2023-02

Returning soon!

Having a personal voice is the most important component of a sustainable and fulfilling artistic career. In this class, we will explore ways to find and sharpen your voice, hone your aesthetic skills, learn how to apply that creative thinking, push past creative barriers and discover how to be a unique, desirable voice in the industry. This is a visual development industry class applicable to film, games, and TV, with mock assignments covering various aspects of what the job is like:
keyframes, storyboarding, designing characters and props while exploring various styles.

Get ready to dive outside your comfort zone as we find our artistic voices together! There will be a strong emphasis on how to approach keyframes for a story, iterating on ideas, discussions about style vs. substance, sketchbook exploration, observation from life, experimentation with mediums, how to do research and analyze reference, how to approach film studies, and more!
