Bring energy and excitement to your stories, and develop fluid gesture drawing mastery with this simple guide designed for the storytelling illustrator.
Have you ever wondered how feature film animators create characters that feel elastic and full of life? Movement and energy are vital to a compelling story, and your best path to creating that energy in your work is through learning the finer details of gesture. Gesture takes stiff, wooden character designs and makes them exciting — and perfect for compelling stories.
In this course, feature animation character designer Brooklyn Walker covers industry tested techniques and exercises you can use to bring life to your characters, including the Flour Sack Method, the Bean and Noodle Method, and many, many more.
In this class you will learn:
- The best materials for gesture, and why you need something “forgiving and unforgiving”
- The major differences between gesture drawing and figure drawing
- Why you need to name every pose before you start
- How to do the Flour Sack Method, the Bean and Noodle method, the One Line method, and more
- How to recognize and use basic shapes to define your characters
- How to use empathy to create more vital, interesting poses
- Extrapolation, and the simple technique behind drawing other people’s characters in new poses
- How carrying your sketchbook everywhere can supercharge your skills
- How to build a compelling gesture portfolio
