Production Illustration and Environment Painting Techniques | CG Master Academy
Production Illustration and Environment Painting Techniques with Nick Hiatt — https://bit.ly/2DuTkoo
Today’s studios have evolved a set of demands that move beyond the singular focus of matte painting, including digital environments and production illustrations. In this course, Nick will demonstrate the processes he uses to create a detailed Production Illustration, employing the same modern techniques required in everyday production work. He will break down his workflow to create digital environments, and show students how to create a range of 3D Assets, from Characters to Architecture. Once 3D assets are created, students will paint them using a mix of techniques in Photoshop. This course will cover many different types of industry-standard software, and will be exploring an array of approaches to create Production Illustrations and modern digital paintings.
