"I desired dragons with a profound desire. Of course, I in my timid body did not wish to have them in the neighborhood. But the world that contained even the imagination of Fáfnir was richer and more beautiful, at whatever the cost of peril.”
Skills
CONCEPT ART
"Concept art is a form of illustration used to convey an idea for use in films, video games, animation, comic books, or other media before it is put into the final product." In more recent years digital sculpture has become a vital aspect of the concept art process in the film industry. I use Zbrush to accomplish this.
ILLUSTRATION
"An illustration is a decoration, interpretation or visual explanation of a text, concept or process, designed for integration in published media, such as posters, flyers, magazines, books, teaching materials, animations, video games and films." I use illustration to tell stories like The Modern Dragon.
Art DIRECTion
In film and television, an Art Director is the person responsible for the overall visual look of the production. Art Directors have a key creative role in the creation of motion pictures and television. Working directly with the
and producer, they must develop the style to visually tell the story.
