Overview

In this course, we develop a thumb sketch for a character and based on that we will develop a character closeup shot to show certain character particulars. Required Software: Photoshop CC

This course introduces designers, photographers, and illustrators to the character concept process, being able to use familiar photo manipulation techniques to a new creative field. This course will show how to interpret a character brief, how to develop a thumb sketch to block the character look and feel, how to modify the main source image to transpose the look and feel of the character and, how to make the transition from a good character concept to a villain character - without using digital painting techniques.
