Class Summary

Visual storytelling is more than simply creating a narrative in an illustration. It’s a way of expressing an emotional journey and connecting with your audience that goes beyond words. It’s the experiences that you have gone through and a message from your authentic story.

This class will teach you a method to effectively plan out the visual storytelling of your illustration, and go through the fundamentals of how to paint a scene with a full background with 3D modeling, render characters, and the secret ingredients to tie the whole artwork together.
