In this lecture and demonstration, Aaron Limonick shares a number of rapid sketching techniques for use in any production environment. Beginning with a ‘blank canvas’ in Adobe Photoshop, Aaron demonstrates the creative process behind designing for an ultimately collaborative effort, the purposes of different types of sketches, and finally the importance of painting value studies and color keys in a quick and effective manner. Using the methods of a traditional painter in a digital medium, students will learn how to bridge the gap between a variety of quick ideation sketches and a finished concept painting with a sense of story.
