8 Week Visdev 1 Class (No Feedback) [Gumroad, Zac Retz, Group-Buy]

I will provide comments on your work via Discord, and you will also see feedback from other students. You will join live classes, participate in Q&A sessions, and have access to class recordings.

Start Date: February 10, 2024. Classes will take place live on Zoom at 9:00 AM PST every Saturday. Each session will run for 2.5 to 3 hours. We will communicate and share homework through a designated Discord server or email.

How It Works: I will announce when the next live class starts on my social media. You can purchase this class at any time and watch previously recorded lessons. You can also join live classes as I teach them. You only need to buy the class once, and you can continue to participate in future sessions whenever I teach. Each time I teach this class, I will update the recorded lessons so you will always have access to the most current material.

• This is a comprehensive college-level course. In this course, we will learn how to create bold cinematic visual development paintings for animated movies. This is the class I wish I had when I was in school!

I will break down the fundamentals into simple, manageable sections.

• Each week, there will be homework to help you practice topics and build on what we have learned.

Week 1: Introduction, Value Simplification
Week 2: Extended Value
Week 3: Composition
Week 4: Perspective / Camera
Week 5: Color
Week 6: Visual Development Sketching / Storytelling
Week 7: Visual Development Shapes
Week 8: Finished Visual Development Paintings / Overview

Who Should Take This Class?
This class is suitable for beginners to mid-level artists, or anyone looking to refresh their understanding of the fundamentals and learn my painting approach. If you are new to digital painting, I recommend taking my “Intro to Photoshop and Values” class first. In Visdev 1, we will cover the basics to provide a solid foundation, allowing you to build on these concepts even after the class is completed. Class size will be limited to 25 students, ensuring I have time to work with each of you and provide feedback.

What You Need: Any painting app, a computer with a tablet, or an iPad. (I will be painting in Photoshop and will cover some PS tools, but Photoshop is not required.)
