FULL-LENGTH COURSES

In-depth and goal-focused course providing a comprehensive structure for skill development from foundational to advanced or specialization.

Each course gives a thorough exploration of how to streamline using industry practice workflows, from initial ideation to theoretical principles and 2D/3D art skills using industry-standard tools for finishing compelling renders of your illustration or concept art design solutions with feedback and guidance for the students.

Before the start of the course, we review each attendee's portfolio and survey their key interests in what they want to learn and focus on.

In that manner, we can structure our full-length course based on that information for an effective method of developing good basics to advancing and elevating the artists' potential.
