Friday 11 November - The Concept Artist

This Friday we will start a new topic which will look at some methodologies used by concept artists.
We will look at Romantic art and Renaissance art and how most concept art relies on a 'naturalistic' or 'realistic' treatment of images. This is because if it is destined to be concepts for live action films, the set or costume designers, or CGI workers will need to know as clearly as possible what it will look like. Some concept art, however, e.g. for animation, such as for the film"The Incredibles", the concept art is required to provide a 'look and feel" for the scenes and characters, and can be more stylised.
