Description
We will focus on creature, animal, and character design and learn intermediate design skills such as anatomy, rendering techniques, lighting and shadow, and environment design. By the end of the class, we'll have several fully developed characters and creatures and backdrops and you'll learn about what it takes to get your audience hooked on your unique art. Demonstrations and creative prompts will be utilized in this intermediate-advance class. New projects and subjects will be explored, so both new and continuing students are welcome. *This class is a part of our Certificate in Fine Arts Program and will give each student one point towards their CiFA certification.
