First guest lecture


Last week on Thursday we had our first guest lecture, from codemasters. The person who came in to talk to us was Mitch  Small , who was previously a student on the course. As well as a lecture on concept art and misconceptions about being a concept artist, there was a half a day long workshop. This work stressed the importance of doing lots of  thumbnails, the importance of silhouette and producing things quickly.

The tutorial was about producing an alleyway scene. I don't have anything to show because I got lost at the white boxing stage and couldn't work out what had been done with the different renders. But I see now that in visual design I should produce more rougher and quick drawings when designing something. Next time we get a project like that I'm going to speed up my work process and draw a load of small thumbnails.
