The boy who loved painting

This is a painting factory working as a freelance concept artist. I just like painting The story of a boy who used to paint and became a concept artist Would you like to listen to it?
Concept art, there are more stories hidden behind one sheet of background than you might think.
Maybe it's a worldview, stories about the times, environment, climate, tendencies, and the main characters. I design and draw a background with a concept and imagination in a single picture The emotion of creating Yu from nothingI fell in love with that, and became a background concept artist.
concept art,
The emotion of creating Yu from nothing
Games, movies, dramas, animations, etc. Even works that boast brilliant visual beauty begin with a single pictureDo you know that it will be? Each picture is a concept art. And the person who designs and draws it is called a concept artist.
The work is a concept in which the first thoughts that come out of someone's head are expressed in writing through the planning stage, and the writing is reborn as a picture that makes you imagine the story at a glance through the imagination and hands of the concept artist, that is, a concept painting. Then, the actual work is produced using the original concept picture as a navigation system.
[Maleficent 2 concept art by a foreign concept artist unveiled at Disney Korea]
The photo above is a Malle Percent 2 concept art by a foreign concept artist released by Disney Korea!
Concept art still feels unfamiliar in Korea, but it's an active field in foreign countries where there is a lot of blockbuster video production. The place where concept art was first introduced is also Disney. And don't forget that behind blockbusters as we know them, there's always concept art.
In line with the current era where demand for online content is exploding, it is expected that the Korean market will also grow in the future, so the possibilities of concept art are endlessI think so.
I hope that through the class, everyone can feel the charm of concept art like me.
Let's learn only the know-how you need to know
1) Learn how to express a sense of space in the background
Perspective perspective, which you must know when drawing a background, is the most important element for expressing a sense of space in the background, and many people often give up on drawing backgrounds while learning how to see through.
However, there is an easy way to do clairvoyance, which can only be considered difficult. The clairvoyance method, which is a background drawing know-how learned in practice, and the know-how to easily express and learn a sense of space using PhotoshopI'll let you know.
2) Let's draw a picture of the imaginary world in my head
Many people who have studied art for entrance exams or painting at American universities find it very difficult to prepare concept art. The reason for this is that I've only drawn what I'm drawing as I see it.
While drawing a picture a little easier in this class A method of drawing with cotton that allows you to learn a sense of shapeI'll let you know. Like making a statue out of clay Painting isn't difficult if you just know how to do it.

4) Realistically and nicely like a scene from a movie
Drawing a great picture like a scene from a movie depends on how good you are at presenting realistic expressions. However, if you try to describe every part one by one, you may get tired before you finish drawing, and your interest in painting may decrease.
But wouldn't painting be more exciting if you could draw a picture that takes a week or a day?
In order to create effective won currency in a short time in practice A technique called matte paintingI use it a lot, but right Techniques for realistic expression using photo sourcesThis is it. Here are some tips on how to effectively complete a painting using the matte painting technique.

You'll be able to create a wonderful work while naturally reviewing what you've learned in class.
More than the pain of creation
I want to share the joy of creation
I've been a self-taught painter my whole life. I was able to get to a certain position even as a self-taught student. But I don't want you to be self-taught for a long time like me.
I don't just want to share the pain of creation with all of you who love painting. Instead, I want to share more of the joy of creation. Earn time by gaining know-how so that you can feel more creative fun with the same effort.
Through this class, I will generously share my own concept art know-how that can be used in practice, starting as a hobby. I started as a hobby, and now Since I became a concept artist beyond my hobby, I hope you all have the courage to start.
If I did, you can do it too!

Curriculum

Grimm Factory
Hallo This is a painting factory currently working as a freelance concept artist.
I worked as a background concept artist for a game company for 12 years. I also met many students at game art schools and online and offline classes.
Everyone wants to draw great pictures or become a concept artist, but it's hard to know where and how to start?
Even if I'm self-taught, I'm not sure I can use it in practice. When I was preparing for the next one of my hobbies, it was just as difficult and difficult as all of you. It was difficult to find a school, and even if I did, the course fees were too expensive to attend.
So I got a random job, did an unrelated job, and learned painting by myself with a squint, but it took me a lot of time to build my skills because I had no know-how. So for all of you who love painting and want to have a second job Know-how to reduce trial and error and help in practiceI opened this class because I wanted to create a class where I could learn.
A class like Gengken Bridge where you can think beyond just a hobby In order to become, I will generously share my concept art know-how.
